Thomas Tuchel has been told how much Chelsea must pay this summer in order to sign Brighton defender Marc Cucurella. The 23-year-old has been heavily linked with a move away from the Amex Stadium following a series of impressive displays for Graham Potter's side.
Todd Boehly's consortium, who have agreed a £4.25billion deal to buy the west London club, are expected to 'push for A-list signings' to mark a new era at Stamford Bridge, according to the MailOnline. And, with the new ownership group eager to bolster the Blues' armoury, The Telegraph indicate that, after player sales are taken into account, Tuchel is set to have £200million at his disposal to strengthen his side.
And, as part of Chelsea's proposed rebuild project, Cucurella has emerged as a target, with Marcos Alonso facing a seemingly uncertain future. The 31-year-old, who has been linked with a move to Barcelona, is planning on leaving Stamford Bridge this summer, according to Fabrizio Romano.
