Manchester United’s pursuit of a new left-back has intensified, with an agreement in principle now reached on personal terms with Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella. After designating him as their top choice to replace the injured Luke Shaw, United’s focus now shifts toward finalizing a deal with Chelsea.
Despite Chelsea’s rejection of United’s initial £2 million offer, talks persist as both clubs aim to bridge the gap. Chelsea’s valuation stands closer to £7 million, with negotiations expected to converge toward a middle ground.
United Agree Personal Terms With Cucurella:
As confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United has secured a preliminary agreement on personal terms with Marc Cucurella, signaling a significant step forward in the deal.
With their sights set firmly on Cucurella, Manchester United has halted discussions concerning other left-back prospects, demonstrating their commitment to securing the Spaniard’s signature. The Red Devils express confidence in completing the deal swiftly.
Ongoing negotiations between the two clubs seek common ground. While Chelsea is open to a loan arrangement for Cucurella, they’re seeking a substantial loan fee, navigating toward a mutually beneficial resolution.
Amidst considerations of players like Marcos Alonso and Nicolas Tagliafico, Manchester United has settled on Marc Cucurella as their preferred option. The club’s priority is to finalize the left-back deal promptly, allowing them to redirect their efforts toward reinforcing the midfield.
As the window’s closure looms, Manchester United inches closer to securing Marc Cucurella, underscoring their determination to bolster their squad before the deadline.
