  "account": "Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho is requesting defender Marc Cucurella to get a tattoo of his face on his body, mirroring the tattoo Cucurella has of Spain manager Luis de la Fuente. Cucurella had pledged to honor De la Fuente if Spain won the 2022 World Cup. The defender did receive a victory medal and a new tattoo in July following Spain's triumph. When asked about the De la Fuente tattoo, Cucurella said he had no regrets. Although some have suggested he gets Mourinho's face tattooed on him, Cucurella has not gone that far. Upon joining Real Madrid in July, Cucurella revealed that Mourinho had suggested a similar dedication. Cucurella also followed through on a promise to dye his hair red post Spain's win at the 2024 European Championship.",
