Spain and Man City defensive midfielder Rodri said he has been impressed by Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella’s performances at the ongoing Euro 2024 in Germany.

Both players are representing Spain at the tournament and the midfielder says he is in awe of his teammate’s form.

Spain has emerged as the favourite to win the trophy, having been in exceptional form at the 2024 European Championships, winning every single fixture so far.

Rodri and Cucurella have featured in three of their four fixtures.

Rodri told El Partidazo de Cope, as quoted by Metro: “I know them all but, the level that Cucurella is showing.

“I already knew him but the level he is showing in a context like this in a Euro Cup, he is helping us a lot, especially defensively, with the character he has. I am loving it and I hope he continues at this level.”
