Serhou Guirassy's immediate reaction to missing out on Ballon d'Or nominees list has quickly gone viral
Borussia Dortmund's Serhou Guirassy has made his displeasure very clear after being snubbed for the 2024 Ballon d'Or shortlist.
The 2024 Ballon d'Or nominees were confirmed on Wednesday with Real Madrid duo Vinicius Jr and Jude Bellingham the favourites alongside Manchester City's Rodri.
The striker burst onto the scene last campaign after making the move to Stuttgart where he scored 28 goals in 25 starts, only beaten by Harry Kane.

Guirassy enjoyed one of the most successful seasons out of any striker in Europe last season, but the Guinean international was not included in the top 30 of this year's Ballon d'Or.
The target man's performances earned him a second move in as many years as he joined Dortmund over the summer for a surprisingly cheap price of £15m.
The new Dortmund man joined the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, and Real Madrid's Rodrygo as particularly shock emissions from the shortlist, and Guirassy took to social media to demonstrate his frustration.
🤣🤦🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️

Following the announcement, the 28-year-old posted a series of rather telling emojis to showcase his displeasure, and the X post has since gained over 4.8 million views.
Guirassy isn't alone as Rodrygo also took to socials to react to missing out, with the Madrid star receiving backing from teammate Jude Bellingham.
