Former German international and ex-Barcelona player Gundogan updated his social media to congratulate Spain on winning the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and declared Rodri the best player of the tournament.
Gundogan also specifically paid tribute to the final's hero, Ferran Torres. Ferran Torres scored the winning goal in extra time, helping Spain secure their second FIFA World Cup title in history.
