Marc Cucurella has promised to get a tattoo of Spain manager Luis De La Fuente on his body if La Roja win the World Cup.
The newly-signed Real Madrid left-back made the bizarre vow ahead of his nation's blockbuster final against Argentina.

Cucurella has played every single minute of the tournament so far, starring for Spain during their impressive run.
He featured in their semi-final win over France, which saw them put a marker down in their bid to become world champions.
Defeating Kylian Mbappe and co. secured a spot in La Roja's first World Cup final since they won the competition in 2010.
And the occasion is so much of a special one for Cucurella that the defender is ready to celebrate it in very bizarre fashion.

How about Tat?
Speaking ahead of Spain vs Argentina, which takes place on Sunday evening, he promised to get a tattoo should they come out on top.
The 27-year-old said: “If we win the World Cup, I will tattoo Luis de la Fuente’s face on my body.”
Heading into the final, Spain are the slight favourites to overcome Lionel Messi's side.
Argentina have relied on late goals against Egypt, Switzerland and England to reach the final.
Meanwhile La Roja looked comfortable against Portugal and France, only needing a late strike against Belgium.
Should the ex-Chelsea man have to get the tattoo, he will have to decide where's best to get his manager inked on him.

Strangely though, Cucurella will be somewhat pleased to have De La Fuente tattooed on him if Spain win the World Cup - at least it's nothing to do with Barcelona, as he had previously said: "I prefer being bald than having a tattoo of the Barcelona badge."
All on the line
When Sunday's final arrives, Cucurella certainly won't be thinking about his potential embarrassing tattoo.
Full focus will be on getting his hands on the famous trophy, with Spain aiming to win their second-ever title.
La Roja comfortably knocked out France in their semi-final tie, with goals coming from Mikel Oyarzabal and Pedro Porro.
And now they take on an Argentina side that scored two late goals to deal a heartbreaking loss to England.
The World Cup final will take place on Sunday, July 19 at 8pm BST.
