US President Donald Trump was asked by a reporter to comment on the hat worn by Spanish international Ferran Torres. As is known, the scorer of "La Roja's" winning goal in the final against Argentina, during the championship parade through the streets of Madrid, wore a red hat emblazoned with "Make Spain Great Again" – a clear reference to perhaps the politician's most famous slogan.
On this matter, Trump stated: "He's a great player, and he was wearing, essentially, a 'Make America Great Again' hat. It was a nice gesture, and I think he did it with very good intentions. We appreciate it."
The hat worn by Ferran Torres is an adaptation of Donald Trump's iconic political slogan "Make America Great Again" (MAGA), which he popularized during his election campaigns and frequently appeared on his characteristic red hats.
This action by the Barcelona player was also noticed by the White House's official social media account a few days prior. While Ferran himself hasn't commented on the act, it's far more likely to be a joke or an outright mockery of the American president, rather than the player genuinely being a fan of Trump and his movement.
The politician, meanwhile, once again used the recent 2026 World Cup to praise his administration. "We achieved it, we made America great. Now we are the best country in the world," Trump insisted.
Hours earlier, the American politician also commented on another athlete, LeBron James, stating that the famous basketball player was likely a racist because he didn't like him.
