Real Madrid were named the men’s club of the year at the Ballon d’Or awards on Monday night but there was nobody to collect the trophy after the Spanish giants chose to snub the prestigious ceremony in Paris claiming they had been disrespected.
Kylian Mbappe also missed the chance to pick up the Gerd Muller trophy he won jointly with Harry Kane as the Real Madrid delegation stayed at home, having apparently learned that Vinicius Junior would not be named male player of the year.
