Vincent Garcia, Editor-In-Chief of French Football Magazine, has disclosed that the five-time Ballon d'Or winner may be upset with the organizers of the prestigious award.
The Portuguese megastar has reportedly failed to vote for a candidate for the Kopa Trophy for two consecutive seasons.
"I don’t know for certain Cristiano is upset; I don’t talk to him directly, but I know... Cristiano didn’t vote last year, and he didn’t vote this year either," Garcia told Nassr Zone.
The Kopa Trophy is awarded at the Ballon d'Or ceremony to the best performing male footballer under the age of 21.
The voting is done by former Ballon d'Or winners, who choose one of the best U-21 players from the previous season.
Barcelona's Lamine Yamal is the favorite to win this year's Kopa Trophy following his incredible campaign for the Spanish giants and the Spain national team.
