Iâll retire and get a tattoo of our manager if Spain win World Cup 2026 – Spanish defender, Cucurella
New Real Madrid signing Marc Cucurella has pledged that if Spain wins the 2026 World Cup, he will get a tattoo of manager Luis de la Fuente’s face on his body. Cucurella made the bold vow leading up to the final against Argentina on Sunday.
His promise reflects the team’s unity and his admiration for the coach, recalling his famous pledge to dye his hair red if they won Euro 2024.
“If we win the World Cup, I’ll call Luis the next day and tell him not to count on me anymore, that I’m retiring from the national team,” he said. “With a European Championship and a World Cup, I can’t do any better. I would get a little tattoo of Spain manager Luis de la Fuente’s face on my bicep if we were to win the World Cup.”
Spain has looked comfortable throughout the tournament, securing victories against Portugal and France and needing only a late strike to edge past Belgium. Should the bet come to fruition, Cucurella will have to decide where best to display his manager’s likeness.
For the defender, at least it is nothing to do with Barcelona, as he had previously joked: “I prefer being bald than having a tattoo of the Barcelona badge.”
