The Manchester City star, Rodri, celebrated his recent Ballon d’Or victory with enthusiasm, singing along with teammates at a restaurant. The catchy chant, “Rodri’s on fire!” echoed through the venue as they reveled in his achievement.
Rodri, who had missed the entire previous season due to a double knee injury, made history as the first Premier League player to win the Ballon d’Or since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2008. At 28, he played a pivotal role in Spain’s European Championship-winning squad and helped Manchester City secure their fourth consecutive league title this year, boasting an impressive record of only one loss in his last eighteen club matches.
Despite the excitement surrounding his win, Rodri remained positive even in light of Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr. opting not to attend the ceremony after being overlooked for the award. Shortly after receiving the prestigious prize, a video surfaced on social media showing Rodri passionately celebrating his accomplishment, capturing the joy of the moment.
