Vinicius Wins FIFA Best Player 2024 Thanks to Fans’ Votes
Vinicius Junior secured the 2024 FIFA Best Men’s Player Award, edging out Rodri thanks to overwhelming support from national team captains and fans worldwide.
Vinicius Junior has been crowned the FIFA Best Men’s Player of 2024, with the Brazilian winger’s victory being heavily influenced by fan votes and the support of national team captains.
The voting process for the FIFA Best Award involves four key groups: national team coaches, captains, journalists, and fans. Each group’s votes contribute to the total score based on FIFA’s point allocation system.
In this year’s competition, Vinicius edged past his main rival Rodri by a narrow margin of five points. Despite a close battle, the Real Madrid star emerged victorious, echoing his stellar performances in major competitions over the past year.
The final rankings were announced during a ceremony held in Qatar, where FIFA revealed detailed voting results. Vinicius’s consistent brilliance and connection with fans worldwide helped him secure the title, highlighting his growing influence on the global football stage.
Vinicius’s triumph was not his first brush with a prestigious award this year. Previously, he had narrowly missed out on the Ballon d'Or to Lionel Messi. However, this victory reaffirms his status as one of the world’s elite players.
Vinicius Junior thanked his fans, teammates, and supporters, acknowledging their role in helping him achieve this historic milestone: “This award is for all those who have believed in me and supported me throughout this journey.”
