This post is a continuation of our previous story: Spain Players’ Wild Promises After Winning the 2026 World Cup.
Marc Cucurella has now kept one of the funniest promises from Spain’s World Cup celebrations. After saying he would get a tattoo of head coach Luis de la Fuente if Spain won the 2026 World Cup, the left-back has gone through with it.
Cucurella Keeps His Promise
The promise started as a light-hearted joke during Spain’s tournament run, but after La Roja beat Argentina 1-0 in the final, Cucurella confirmed he intended to do it. Days later, he shared the tattoo process on social media, showing that the idea was no longer just dressing-room banter.
Reports showed Cucurella during the tattoo session, with the design featuring De la Fuente as a tribute to the coach who led Spain to their second World Cup title.
Why It Went Viral
This moment went viral because it perfectly fits the mood around Spain’s young squad. The team did not only win the World Cup; they created a full celebration culture around it, with players making funny personal promises before and after the tournament.
Cucurella’s tattoo is the first major promise to actually be completed, which makes it the strongest follow-up to the original story.
TipPulse Verdict
It may not be a tactical story or a betting angle, but it is exactly the kind of post-World Cup moment fans love. Cucurella said he would do it, Spain won the World Cup, and now the tattoo is real.
Promise made. Promise kept.
