Real Madrid and Chelsea have reportedly come to a broad agreement to make Marc Cucurella the club’s most expensive left back of all time.
The Spain international cast his own future at Stamford Bridge in uncertainty after taking aim at Chelsea’s unorthodox approach towards the end of a disappointing 2025–26 season. While Cucurella had recently opened himself up to the prospect of giving the project another chance following the exciting addition of Xabi Alonso as manager, it appears as though Real Madrid’s offer was more compelling.
