Chelsea FC is willing to sign Brighton’s left-back, Marc Cucurella at £50m asking price. He joined Brighton from Getafe for £15m last summer and was named as the club’s player of the season after impressing in his debut campaign.
The 24-year old player handed in a transfer request on Friday in a bid to push through a move to City but the Premier League champions will not pay Brighton’s asking price.
Cucurella enjoyed a hugely successful first Premier League season after joining from Getafe in a deal worth around £15m last summer and was named Brighton’s player of the season.
However, Brighton do not want to let Cucurella leave, as it would take a huge offer for them to sell him since he has four years remaining on his contract at the Amex. However, the left-back has now pushed for a move by asking to be sold.
