Real Madrid’s Cucurella names best team in Europe

Real Madrid left-back Marc Cucurella has described the Spanish giants as the best team in Europe at the moment.

The Spaniard joined Real Madrid from Chelsea during the summer, shortly before the 2026 World Cup began.

Cucurella expressed his confidence in the club, insisting that their status and performances place them above other teams on the continent.

He said: “In my opinion, Real Madrid is currently the best team in Europe.”

The defender also spoke about his experience working under manager Jose Mourinho, describing the Portuguese coach as approachable and friendly with the players.

“Mourinho is very close to us… He likes to talk to us and joke with us,” Cucurella said. He added: “However, he’s the boss, and we will always do whatever it is he says.”
