usatoday.com

Spain forward Ferran Torres said his "Make Spain Great Again" hat during World Cup victory celebrations was not a political statement, calling it a joke with friends and family. Torres scored the winning goal in the final against Argentina and wore the Trump-style red hat during the parade. He told CNN he knows nothing about politics and meant no political message, though the White House shared an article about the hat. The hat sparked speculation of either support or mockery of President Trump, who presented the trophy. Torres also discussed transfer interest from Paris Saint-Germain while under contract with Barcelona until 2027.
