Paul Dickov, the former Manchester City star, has insisted that midfielder Rodri deserves to win the 2024 Ballon d’Or.
Dickov believes that the Spain international was the best player last season and should get the prestigious individual award.
Speaking to GOAL, Dickov said: “Not just last season, his performances over the last three or four seasons, he has by far been the best midfielder in that position in the world.
“Winning the Treble the season before last, four-in-a-row last year, winning the Euros with Spain – where he was arguably their best player. Mbappe, Vinicius Jr and Jude are always going to be up there in the mix, mainly because of the club that they are at.
“But I look at Rodri and don’t think there is a more deserved winner of the Ballon d’Or than [him].”
