World Soccer magazine has awarded Cristiano Ronaldo the Best Player of the Year trophy, as reported by Spanish sports newspaper As in its front page.
“Ronaldo beat Leo Messi by 149 votes,” the Madrid daily points out.
As also claims “Real Madrid have ensured Ronaldo will attend the Ballon d’Or event” despite rumours saying he wouldn’t travel to Zurich and the footballer claiming he didn’t know what to do.
Meanwhile, the other main Spanish sports paper, Marca, publishes today a special report about Manchester City Spaniards Jesus Navas, David Silva and former Real Madrid players Javi Garcia and Alvaro Negredo.
“They don’t want to play against Real Madrid, Barcelona or Atletico Madrid in the last 16 round of the Champions League,” Marca highlights.
The most sold Spanish newspaper also publishes a statistical report about Los Blancos improvement in terms of possession. “They’ve win the possession of the ball in 19 of their 22 matches,” Marca emphasizes. “Carlo Ancelotti changes the style of the team,” they argue.
