Marc Cucurella is a man of his word.
The Real Madrid defender promised to get a tattoo of manager Luis de la Fuente if Spain won the World Cup and he lived up to his vow.
The 28-year-old Cucurella showed off his new ink on his upper left arm on Instagram on Wednesday.
“Promise kept,” Cucurella captioned the post.
Spain defeated 10-man Argentina, 1-0, after extra time in the July 19 Final on a goal from Ferran Torres. Cucurella featured in all eight of Spain’s matches. The World Cup comes two years after Spain captured the Euro becoming the third squad to win a World Cup as the European champions.
A native of Alella, Cucurella is back in Spain with Los Blancos after five years in England. Following a season with Brighton, Cucurella spent the past four seasons at Chelsea. The Barcelona youth product most recently played in Spain with Getafe.
