Among the key players of La Roja is Marc Cucurella, the talented left-back from Chelsea. After an excellent tournament, the 25-year-old will be keen to lift the trophy on Sunday night at Wembley Stadium. And to celebrate a possible victory, Cucurella has made a rather original promise: to dye his hair red if Spain wins.
This is what Claudia Rodríguez, the wife of the Spanish defender, revealed in statements to the program “Espejo Público” on the Antena 3 channel.“I think he promised to dye his hair red, but I’m not going to force him.”said Cucurella’s partner, quoted by the newspaper AS. A promise that shows how much the player is invested in this final and determined to bring the title back to the Roja. After years of drought, Spain has the opportunity to become European champions again on Sunday evening.
In addition to this hair promise, Claudia Rodriguez also revealed that her husband is very superstitious before each national team match.“Before every game you always have to do the same things. Before and after. I have to wear the Spain shirt in every game. Either yes or yes”explained Cucurella’s partner, with a laugh. Rituals that undoubtedly allow the player to concentrate as best as possible before entering the field. At 25, Cucurella is undoubtedly experiencing one of the most important moments of his career with this Euro 2024 final.
Up against England, the Spanish will have a lot to do to win. The Three Lions, led by Harry Kane and Phil Foden, are also favourites for the European title. But Spain, led by a Cucurella in great form, will be keen to win and win a third continental title after 2008 and 2012. A victory that would allow the full-back to keep his hair promise.
