Sergio Aguero has voiced his support for Rodri as his top choice to win the 2024 Ballon d’Or Men’s Player of the Year award. The Manchester City legend believes Rodri, his former teammate, deserves the honor after an exceptional season. Rodri played a pivotal role in City’s treble-winning campaign, which included their Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League triumphs.
Aguero’s endorsement of Rodri over other strong contenders, such as Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham, underscores the midfielder’s importance to City’s success. While players like Phil Foden, Erling Haaland, and Ruben Dias from Manchester City, along with Real Madrid stars Vinicius and Bellingham, are also nominated, Aguero’s pick reflects his belief in Rodri’s consistent performances.
The winner of the prestigious Ballon d’Or will be revealed on October 28 at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris.
