Chelsea slammed for ’embarrassing’ Euros message before England vs Spain final

Must read

Chelsea have three players who will feature in the final of Euro 2024 on Sunday, with Cole Palmer and Conor Gallagher playing for England while Mac Cucurella represents Spain



‘We’re excited’ says Gareth Southgate as England aim to end trophy drought

Chelsea have been slammed after appearing to back Marc Cucurella and Spain over England in the Euro 2024 final.

Cucurella has played in every game during La Roja’s run to the final of this summer’s tournament. His starring role for his country comes on the back of a disappointing season at his club, the Blues.




The left-back is a team-mate of England stars Cole Palmer and Conor Gallagher at Stamford Bridge. Both of them have played their part in the Three Lions’ own run to Sunday’s final in Berlin.

Curiously as an English club though, Chelsea opted to post a good luck message to Cucurella first on their social media account. Alongside two pictures of the left-back in action for Spain, they hailed the 25-year-old.

“Next stop, Berlin. Cucu’s on fire, Europe’s right wingers are terrified. Our Spanish left-back has been a standout performer at the Euros. Tidy on the ball, combative off it,” the post on Chelsea’s Twitter account read.

“Up and down the left touchline, Marc’s leaving everything out on the pitch. The Blues saw what he can do earlier this year, and now he’s ready for the grand finale. This is your time, Marc. Best of luck.”


That drew a furious reaction from England fans though, who slammed the Blues for their post. One fan wrote: “Fold the whole club. Meant to be an English club.”
