real madrid star fede valverde feels this los blancos legend deserved to win ballon d'or

Real Madrid star midfielder, Fede Valverde is of the opinion that former Los Blancos star and a legend at Santigao Bernabeu, Toni Kroos deserved to win the Ballon d'or once in his illustrious career. Kroos, a World Cup winner with Germany retired from the game just at the age of 34. He has been considered as one of the best midfielders of his generation and has won numerous accolades with Real Madrid, which includes 5 UEFA Champions League titles.

"I would have given Toni Kroos a Ballon d'Or'', the Uruguayan told Marca in an interview.

For the 26-year old midfielder, individual awards doesn't make any sense to him as no individual would've won anything unless the team work for it.

"My opinion is that individual awards are unnecessary in a team sport. I've always said that & I stand by that. No single player would have won anything on their own. It is prestigious, but not important. That's a big difference'', he told.

Valverde takes pride of being a 'team player' and want to win accolades with the team only.

"My idea is simply that I don't find it important, or not as important as other players. No single player would have won anything on their own. I always see myself as a team player, which is also due to my way of playing, and want to win the titles with the team. That's what counts in the end. That's why it doesn't bother me, not even secretly'', the Real Madrid man further added.

It is to be noted that along with Valverde, the likes of Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr, his other other Real teammates are also nominated for the Ballon d'Or 2024 award. Both Bellingham and Vini had a brilliant individual season and they would be fighting with Manchester City's Erling Haaland for the top spot.
