Real Madrid were named club of the year but were absent from Monday's Ballon d'Or ceremony in Paris, stating it would not attend events where it is "not respected."
Vinicius Junior posted, "I'll do it 10x if I have to. They're not ready," reflecting his disappointment after losing the Ballon d'Or to Rodri.
Real Madrid expressed their frustration in a statement, saying, "If the award criteria doesn't give it to Vinicius as the winner, then those same criteria should point to Carvajal as the winner."
Despite winning the men's Ballon d'Or, Rodri faced criticism as Vinicius Junior, who excelled last season, was overlooked for the prestigious award.
