Without a filter, he remembered the awards that, according to him, were given to Lionel Messi and that he did not deserve. He indicated that UEFA had an impact on the final election of the 2024 Ballon d’Or to get even with Real Madrid.
It is worth remembering that Carlos Antonio Vélez is a confessed fan of Real Madrid and publicly declared to be a member of the ‘Merengue’ team for many years.
