On August 2, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said that players including Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham, and Dani Carvajal, all have the ability to compete for the Ballon d’Or, but for the team, defending the Champions League title is the most important thing.
Ancelotti talked about the Ballon d’Or: “Vinicius is a genius player, he did very well last season; Carvajal also had a dream season, he won La Liga, the Champions League and the European Cup; Bellingham also had a dream season, he also won the best player of La Liga last season. These three disciples of mine all have the ability to compete for the Ballon d’Or.”
But Ancelotti went on to say that defending the Champions League is the most important thing for the team: “I think winning the Ballon d’Or is not the most important thing. If you go and interview our players, ask them if they want the Ballon d’Or or the Champions League, they will tell you they want the Champions League without a doubt.”
In the 2023-24 season, Real Madrid won La Liga and the Champions League. In the new season, the powerful Galacticos are aiming to defend both titles.
