Marc Cucurella's Tattoo Sparks Imitation Talk Among Football Stars

Spanish tattoo artist Joaquín Ganga, known for hyper‑realistic work and a client list that includes tennis champion Carlos Alcaraz, NBA star LeBron James and musician Drake, inked Barcelona defender Marc Cucurella with a portrait of Spain national team coach Luis de la Fuente after Spain’s 2026 World Cup triumph. The tattoo, part of Ganga’s growing portfolio of high‑profile sports and entertainment figures, can command fees up to $100,000 per session.

Barcelona goalkeeper Joan Garcia told Spanish newspaper Sport that, even if his team wins the Champions League, he has no plans to follow Cucurella’s example and get a similar tattoo. Garcia, who has no tattoos, said he would celebrate any victory in another way and also noted that Cucurella’s recent move to Real Madrid was expected by the national squad.
