Ancelotti Reveals Real Madrid Star’s Ballon d’Or Fate

Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti has stated that midfielder, Toni Kroos will not win the Ballon d’Or award in 2024.

Ancelotti, who admitted he would like to see Kroos win the Ballon d’Or, said the Germany international could fight for the award if he wins the Champions League and the Euro 2024 this summer.

With both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo now playing their football outside Europe, there may be a real opportunity for someone else to claim the honour.

Kroos has been brilliant for Real Madrid this season.

The 34-year-old bagged an assist in Madrid’s 5-0 win over Alaves on Tuesday night.

Speaking about the possibility of the former Bayern Munich star winning the Ballon d’Or, Ancelotti said (via @MadridXtra):

“Ballon d’Or for Kroos? Yes I would like it but he won’t win it. Or maybe…anything can happen.

“There is the Euro this summer, if he wins the Champions League and the Euro with Germany… he could fight for the Ballon d’Or.”
