In the 2022-23 season, Rodri was simply amazing. It could be argued that he was among the top three most important "Manchester City" players - a club that achieved a historic "treble".
Furthermore, in the summer of 2023, the defensive midfielder won the Nations League with Spain.
However, the Spanish midfielder did not make it to be among the best in the "Ballon d'Or" or FIFA best awards.
Rodri stated: "It doesn't surprise me. It's normal. I understand perfectly well how things work in such awards. They are given based on marketing, money and advertising.
Before, there were midfielders, also Spanish, who didn't get what they truly deserved. Do you understand what I mean? In the end, what matters most to me in football is what I achieved with my team," the "Manchester City" midfielder told the "Mirror".
