Ballon d’Or: Oliseh names player to win award this year

Former Super Eagles captain, Sunday Oliseh has backed Manchester City midfielder Rodri to win the 2024 Ballon d’Or award.

Real Madrid stars Vinicius jr. and Jude Bellingham appear to be frontrunners to win the award this year, after they won the LaLiga and Champions League titles.

But the debate has changed after the 2024 Euro and Copa America, respectively this summer.

Rodri was impressive as Spain emerged champions of Europe, while Lionel Messi led Argentina to their second consecutive Copa America trophy.

However, Oliseh took to X to respond to a post endorsing Rodri for the Ballon d’Or award with the caption, “Do we need say more? Rodri is in a class of his own”.

The Ballon d’Or award ceremony takes place later in October.
