Manchester City have not made a bid for Marc Cucurella, Brighton chairman Tony Bloom has confirmed.
City have signed Julian Alvarez, Erling Haaland, Kalvin Phillips and Stefan Ortega this summer, with Gabriel Jesus, Fernandinho, Romeo Lavia and Darko Gyabi leaving on permanent transfers. Raheem Sterling is set for an exit to Chelsea, having agreed personal terms, while City continue to be linked with Brighton left-back Cucurella to strengthen their full-back options.
However, it seems that Brighton are keen to hold on to the Spaniard, with their chairman issuing a blunt update to official club media. Asked if he could reassure fans over Cucurella's future, Bloom said: "All I can say about Marc is he is a tremendous player, a tremendous person.
