Chelsea has declined Manchester United’s opening £2 million loan offer for Marc Cucurella, sparking ongoing negotiations between the clubs. Despite the setback, United is poised to renew their efforts, aiming to secure the Spanish left-back’s services.
United has earmarked Marc Cucurella as their top choice for the left-back position, aligning well with Erik ten Hag’s tactical approach. However, Chelsea’s response signifies their intent to secure a more substantial deal for the player.
As Fabrizio Romano reports, Chelsea’s refusal comes on the heels of United’s £2 million loan bid for Marc Cucurella. While Chelsea remains open to a loan arrangement, they seek a valuation that aligns with Cucurella’s worth.
The negotiations highlight Cucurella’s impending move towards Manchester United, indicating the Red Devils’ commitment to bolster their squad. Despite considering alternatives like Marcos Alonso and Sergio Reguilon, United’s focus has crystallized around the former Brighton player.
As the transfer window’s end draws near, Manchester United faces a busy period. The club’s pursuit extends beyond left-back reinforcement, with an emphasis on acquiring a midfielder and possibly addressing Raphael Varane’s injury-related needs.
Amidst the transfer flurry, Marc Cucurella’s potential move to Manchester United looms closer, underscoring the final stages of the window’s dynamic atmosphere.
