Spain are one step away from winning the Euro 2024 tournament, and Marc Cucurella has been a huge part of that success.

Marc Cucurella’s girlfriend has confirmed that the Chelsea defender has ‘promised’ his Spain team-mates that he will dye his hair bright red if they beat England to the Euro 2024 title on Sunday.

“The boys are elated,” Cucurella’s girlfriend, Claudia Rodriguez, told Espejo Publico when asked whether she had managed to  speak with the Chelsea star.

“I called Marc when they were back on the bus [after the defeat of France] and they had a huge party going on. They were super happy.

“They deserve it and hopefully on Sunday we can win the title.”

“The truth is that it is a source of great pride to see him wearing the Spanish national team shirt and to see him doing what he is doing at the Euros.

“It is wonderful to see how far the boys have come and how they have brought the country back together.”

On Cucurella planning to dye his hair red, she said: “I think he has promised to dye his hair red.

“But he has not promised me anything and I am not going to force him.”

On dying his hair red, Rodriguez continued: “He has had long hair all his life, since he was little.

“The thing is that he had straight hair and when he got older it started to curl a lot and that’s how it’s stayed

“It’s part of his personality and identity and people often tell me to cut his hair, but I love it.”
