The big day has finally arrived. The 2024 Ballon d'Or ceremony will take place tonight in Paris and the winner of the prestigious Ballon d'Or will be announced at the Théâtre du Châtelet in about six to seven hours.
Unlike previous years, there have been no leaks or reports about the winner of the 2024 Ballon d'Or, whose name has been kept secret.
Real Madrid superstar Vinicius Jr. is one of the hot favorites to win the award, along with Manchester City stalwart Rodri. The names of Dani Carvajal and Lautaro Martinez are also in the running. Although the name of the winner is a closely guarded secret, reports suggest that it is Vinicius who will walk away with the Ballon d'Or.
Many current and former footballers, pundits, and managers supported the Brazilian to become the first winner of the prestigious award.
Manchester United youngster Alejandro Garnacho is joining the movement by picking Vinicius as his pick for the Ballon d'Or.
When asked to name his winner by El Chiringuito TV, the Argentine prodigy did not hesitate before choosing the Brazilian winger, saying: "Come."
As mentioned earlier, Garnacho is part of a sea of supporters who want the Real Madrid winger to realize his dream and win the Ballon d'Or this year.
After all, the 24-year-old enjoyed an excellent season in 2023/24, playing a vital role in Real Madrid's triumph in La Liga, the UEFA Champions League and the Spanish Supercup.
There is not much time until the winner is announced.
