Chelsea are set to hijack Marc Cucurella deal from Manchester City as talks are currently going on, MySportDab reports.
London club Chelsea is currently in negotiations to complete a move for Brighton And Hove Albion player Marc Cucurella this summer window.
Manchester City already had an agreement with the player on personal terms a long time ago but faced issues concerning a transfer fee for the wing-back.
Chelsea is now looking into hijacking the move as they believe they can secure a move before the summer window ends, knowing they have a lot of space to fill up.
Brighton and Hove Albion are said to value Marc Cucurella for €50 million, and they won’t be listening to anything less before allowing the player to leave this summer.
The defender is also open to moving to a bigger team as he doesn’t look like he will be staying much longer with Brighton, who is holding back so much for a better fee.
Reports reaching us from Fabrizio Romano confirmed Chelsea are holding talks to make sure they complete a move for the defender this summer window.
