Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has been tipped to dominate Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella when England meets Spain in the Euro 2024 final.
England star Bukayo Saka is predicted to outshine Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella in the highly anticipated Euro 2024 final between England and Spain.
Saka, who had a slow start in the tournament, has found his stride, delivering a standout performance in the quarter-final against Switzerland, scoring an 80th-minute equaliser and successfully converting a penalty in the shootout.
England’s journey in the Euros has been tumultuous, with the team underwhelming during the group stage and narrowly avoiding a defeat to Slovakia thanks to a last-minute overhead kick by Jude Bellingham.
A key area for England’s potential success in the final is the right flank, where Saka, after another stellar season with Premier League runners-up Arsenal, is set to face off against Cucurella.
Despite his struggles to justify his £62 million transfer fee since joining Chelsea from Brighton in 2022, Cucurella has been a surprise star in Euro 2024. However, former Premier League manager Harry Redknapp doubts Cucurella’s ability to contain Saka.
