Former Super Eagles captain, John Mikel Obi, has weighed in on the 2024 Ballon d’Or debate.
Obi Mikel, speaking on his podcast, hailed Manchester City’s Rodri as “the best player in the world”.
Rodri is one of the candidates for this year’s Ballon d’Or prize, alongside Real Madrid stars, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr.
The 28-year-old was a key member of the Spain squad that completed a perfect Euro 2024.
La Roja eventually beat England to lift a record fourth European Championship title in Germany last summer.
“The best player I think for me, in my opinion in the world now is Rodri,” Obi Mikel said.
