No, we didn’t know Marc Cucurella had a hairdresser either.
Another bizarre episode in Chelsea’s chaotic season.
Humiliated on Tuesday night away at Brighton (3-0) for their fifth straight Premier League defeat without scoring, the Blues also managed to land themselves a problem of a completely different kind.
As revealed by The Telegraph, Marc Cucurella’s hairdresser posted confidential information on X (formerly Twitter) about Chelsea’s lineup for the evening.
In a post showing him cutting the Spanish international’s hair, the hairdresser wrote, "Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro are both injured for tonight’s match. There’s your exclusive information.”
The English media, moreover, did not hesitate to jump on the story before the barber’s account was deleted. In any case, the claims turned out to be true, with Liam Rosenior confirming the absence of both players before kickoff.
It is not the first time Chelsea have had to deal with this kind of issue, either. Earlier in the season, the lineups for their two-legged Champions League tie against PSG had also leaked to the press.
The atmosphere around the Blues should be nice and relaxed over the next few weeks…
