Ballon d’Or: I don’t know where they’re going – LaLiga President slams Real Madrid

LaLiga President Javier Tebas has blasted Real Madrid following the European champions’ failure to attend the Ballon d’Or ceremony.

It was reported that the LaLiga and European champions boycotted the award ceremony in Paris following the information that their star man, Vinicius Jr, won’t be handed the trophy.

For Tebas, that was classless behaviour and lack of elegance by Los Blancos.

He said via French outlet L’Equipe, “I’m a Madrid fan. The important values of this club are to be a gentleman and to shake hands when you lose.

“I think Real Madrid lost that mentality a long time ago. They should have gone to the ceremony and not questioned the France Football system, which is transparent, with 100 journalists voting.

“Real Madrid’s victimhood doesn’t have to be and it is exaggerated. I don’t know where they’re going. We also experience this lack of elegance in Spain.”
