Ajax midfielder Jordan Henderson talked about the possible candidates to win the next Ballon d'Or and suggested that Rodri Hernandez is the favourite to win it but also talked about his compatriot Jude Bellingham.

Rodri Hernandez, who recently won Euro 2024 with Spain and was voted best player of the tournament, is the main contender to win the next Ballon d'Or. Not only for his triumph with his national team, but also for his season with Manchester City.

The 28-year-old helped the Sky Blues win their fourth successive Premier League title, the Spanish midfielder's second with Pep Guardiola's side. He scored nine goals and provided 13 assists in 50 competitive matches last campaign.

Rodri is considered by many football professionals to be the best player in the world at the moment. However, Ajax midfielder Jordan Henderson, who also spoke of Rodri's talent, said that Jude Bellingham could also win the next Ballon d'Or.

"I just want to change my answer. Is that alright? Can I change? Bellingham," he said in an interview when asked about the next Ballon d'Or winner, changing his first answer, in which he tipped Rodri.
