AN unlikely Chelsea star has suggested that WWE legend John Cena should portray him in a movie.
Cena, 46, has made his comeback to the WWE in 2023 after being a 16-time world champion for the wrestling company.
And now the American’s name has popped up again after being named as the ideal candidate to portray a Blues defender.
The player in question joined Chelsea from Brighton for a £62m fee in 2022.
It is of course left-back Marc Cucurella.
In a hilarious video posted by the Premier League’s social team, numerous players were asked a series of questions.
