Vini Jr. was presented with the EFE Trophy for the Best Ibero-American Player of 2024 at Real Madrid City by Miguel Ángel Oliver, president of the news agency, and Real Madrid legend Roberto Carlos, who won the award in 1998. The forward, who wins this award for the third consecutive year, ended 2024 with 32 goals, which were instrumental in winning the Champions League (he was named best player of the competition), LaLiga, the Intercontinental Cup (in which he won the Golden Ball award), the Uefa Super Cup and the Spanish Super Cup.

After collecting the EFE Trophy, Vini Jr. said the following: “I’m delighted. I'd like to thank all my teammates, who make the most complicated things easier for me. It's always important to win awards. This is the third time I've won this one and hopefully, I can win more. We want 2025 to be an amazing year and hopefully one with more titles. I know it's quite difficult because we won five trophies this year, but we're here to be at our best and keep winning for this club.” This award follows others received by Vini Jr. this year, such as The Fifa Best Men’s Player and the Globe Soccer award for the best player and best forward of 2024.
