Claudia Rodriguez, Marc Cucurella’s girlfriend has confirmed the footballer’s bold bet if Spain emerges victorious against England in the Euro 2024 final.
The talented Chelsea full-back has been a standout player in this year’s European Championships, helping Spain to an unbeaten record so far.
After a thrilling 2-1 victory over France in the semi-finals, La Roja will now face off against the Three Lions in the final at the Berlin Olympiastadion.
But it’s not just his skills on the field that are grabbing attention – Cucurella has promised to dye his famous curly locks red if Spain claims the title.
His girlfriend Claudia Rodriguez revealed the quirky pledge, saying: “Marc promised somewhere that he would dye his hair red. But he didn’t promise me anything and I won’t force him to do it.”
Meanwhile, the Chelsea star made the promise during an interview with the radio show El Partidazo, where Cucurella confidently stated: “If we win the title, I’ll have my hair dyed red.”
With the final looming, all eyes will be on Cucurella to see if he follows through on his colorful commitment.
Marc Cucurella reveals more details about his hairstyle
Additionally, in a recent interview with Spanish outlet AS, Cucurella shared the story behind his iconic curly hairstyle.
Cucurella’s unique look has become his trademark, with people recognizing him by his hairstyle.
Meanwhile, the Chelsea player revealed that his mother was the one who decided on his childhood hairstyle, which he continued to sport while playing football.
He said to Spanish outlet AS: “As a child, your mother decides what your hairstyle should be and mine just liked it that way.
“So I played football with it and it went well for me, people recognized me by my hair – so I let it grow like that.”
Now, Cucurella maintains his luscious locks with his stunning girlfriend’s approval.
In a lighthearted comment to El Partidazo, he joked that he would consider cutting his hair if they were to win the European Championship, but quickly added that his girlfriend would not approve of it.
He joked to El Partidazo: “I would let them cut my hair if we won the European Championship – but my girlfriend would kill me for it. She likes my hair like that.”
Seemingly, Claudia Rodriguez is a fan of the footballer’s distinctive hairstyle which the Spanish star has no plans to change any time soon but only to colour it red if Spain wins.
