Partially.
Partially it’s the fact that Madrid as a club are hated for being powerful. And vini is the kind of player no defense wants to face. The kind of player who’ll humiliate defenders and cause chaos.
And once it started and crowds managed to get a reaction out of him, crowds across the country realised they can rile him up now.
Also they don’t like him for talking against Spain and their clubs and fanbases.
Vini and Bellingham were popular for a long time, and both got Madrid’s PR machine behind their back which can never be discounted. Personally I’d pick Kroos over both.
So:
Rodri
Kroos
Vinícius
But I wouldn’t bet any money on any other spot than nr. 1

Why so many whistles from the Sociedad supporters?
Everyone hates vini in Spain, there’s always whistles, booing, insults and racist chants. Always.
That’s crazy. Is it pure racism?

There’s quite a few factors at play
I see, thanks
Brazil’s awful form will cost Vini the trophy. My bet is Rodri, he seems to have gotten a lot of positive PR lately too.
Rodri seems like the most probably indeed.
Who do you see as 2nd and 3rd?

My completely unbiased list would be
What’s you list?
I like your second list, even maybe with Haaland before Yamal, but Rodri still top.
Actually with the Euro that Spain did, your order makes the more sense!
