Before the 2026 World Cup, Spanish national team players were asked what they would do if they won the tournament. Some said they would dye their hair or shave it off, while others made more unusual promises.
Spain won the World Cup, and one of the players has now fulfilled a promise that initially seemed like a complete joke. The footballer has surprised observers by actually carrying out what he had said.
This case shows that pre-tournament pledges by athletes are not always empty words and can sometimes be kept after the biggest victory.
