Real Madrid Win Laureus Team Of The Year Award For 2024

Real Madrid have added another prestigious award to their bulging collection. Los Blancos won the Laureus Team of the Year award for 2024 after a spectacular year where they snapped up five trophies.
They won the UEFA Champions League, La Liga, UEFA Super Cup, Intercontinental Cup, and the Supercopa de España last year. This is the second time in the club's history that they won five trophies in a calendar year with 2017 being the other.
Real Madrid beat other nominees like the Barcelona Women's soccer team, the McLaren Formula 1, the Spain's National soccer team, the Boston Celtics, and the USA basketball team. The ceremony took place at the Palacio de Cibeles in Madrid, and Florentino Perez attended the event along with some star players. Rafael Nadal presented the trophy to Los Merengues.
