AndControversy arose over the Golden Ball, after Juvenal Edjogo, the former captain of Equatorial Guinea, announced on Tuesday a suspected case, dating back to 2013, when the award was handed over to Cristiano Ronaldo.
The former midfielder, who represented clubs like Levante or Alaves, was present on the Spanish television station Goal Play, where he claimed that the votes he made that year did not correspond to those revealed by FIFA later.
“The little I can say about this kind of award is what happened, in 2013, when I elected the three Ballon d’Or players. I sent in my votes, and at the end, when the list of people who voted in who was announced…my votes were different,” He started saying.
It seems that the Equatorial Guinea captain voted for Messi Cristiano [Ronaldo] I don’t know who and I didn’t vote for any of them. That is why I say that I absolutely do not believe in any of these prizes. I can’t say more.”
“I voted, first, for Drogba, who was European champion with Chelsea, with that great header in the final. I also voted for Iniesta and I don’t know who else. Messi and Cristiano had a season where he did well, but not at the stratospheric level. Those It is the doubts that remain. For this reason, since then, I think it has no value, “he said.
