Spain defender Marc Cucurella has fulfilled his promise to get a tattoo of World Cup-winning coach Luis de la Fuente. Cucurella, who played every minute of Spain's successful World Cup campaign, revealed the tattoo on social media with the caption 'Promise kept.' The tattoo depicts De la Fuente holding the World Cup trophy in front of the number 26. After the final, De la Fuente joked that he expected Cucurella to follow through, saying he was proud the players kept their promises. Cucurella recently joined Real Madrid from Chelsea for £52m and also carried his wife's pyjama top as a lucky charm during the tournament.
