Vinicius, Bonmati Win FIFA Best Players Of The Year

Vinicius Junior of Real Madrid was awarded the FIFA Best Men’s Player of the Year trophy at a ceremony in Doha on Tuesday, while Barcelona’s Aitana Bonmati claimed the Women’s Player of the Year award for the second consecutive time.

This accolade comes two months after the 24-year-old Vinicius finished second in the Ballon d’Or.

Real Madrid had decided to skip the ceremony after learning that Manchester City’s Rodri was set to win the award.

However, Vinicius was present in Doha to collect his prize, as he is in Qatar with his team ahead of their Intercontinental Cup final against Mexico’s Pachuca on Wednesday.

“Thank you very much. I don’t know where to start. It was impossible to think of getting here. I grew up in a world of poverty, of organised crime. It’s for all the children who grow up in that world. I thank everyone who voted for me,” Vinicius said on stage.
