Despite Hair-Pulling Incident
Tottenham Hotspur's Richarlison Apologizes
Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella has vowed to keep his long hair despite an incident in which Tottenham Hotspur's Richarlison pulled on it during a match. The incident occurred in the 62nd minute of Tottenham's 2-0 victory over Chelsea on August 14, 2022, and sparked outrage among fans and pundits alike. Richarlison has since apologized for his actions, but Cucurella has stated his determination to keep his hair, which he has worn long for many years.
In an interview with the Spanish newspaper Marca, Cucurella said: "I'm not going to cut my hair. It's part of who I am. I've had it for many years and it's not going anywhere. I don't care what people say. I'm proud of my hair and I'm not going to change for anyone."
Cucurella's decision to keep his hair has been met with support from fans and teammates. Many have praised him for standing up for himself and refusing to conform to societal norms. Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has also defended Cucurella, saying that he is free to wear his hair however he wants.
