England midfielder, Jude Bellingham Brazil winger Vinicius Junior as favourite to win the 2024 Ballon d’Or award.
The Real Madrid players have been widely regarded as the two leading contenders for the Ballon d’Or this year.
Bellingham was integral to Real Madrid’s LaLiga triumph, while Vinicius proved decisive during the tail end of their Champions League success.
However, Goal reports that with Brazil suffering an embarrassingly early exit from the 2024 Copa America, the common consensus is that Bellingham is now one game away from the Ballon d’Or.
Bellingham may have gone missing for Madrid during the tail end of the club season, but he also performed poorly at Euro 2024 despite scoring a couple of crucial goals in Germany.
But just being part of an England win over Spain on Sunday should seal the deal for the 21-year-old.
