Cucurella Now on the Verge of Joining United
Negotiations Between Chelsea and United at Advanced Stage
Latest reports suggest that United’s pursuit of Cucurella has reached advanced stages. The Premier League club were in search of a left-back after injuries to Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia left Erik ten Hag without a senior left-sided full-back in the squad. The La Masia product is viewed as a player who is best suited to play in the Dutch manager’s system.
The former Ajax manager is keen on working with the 25-year-old, according to rumors. The talks are currently ongoing between the two Premier League giants for a loan deal. The Red Devils initially offered a loan fee in excess of £2 million, which was rejected by the Blues.
The United hierarchy is now only focusing on wrapping up the signing of the Spanish full-back before the transfer window shuts. They are not negotiating with any other left-back at the moment. The player’s entourage has given the green light to the transfer and personal terms have already been agreed, according to the Italian journalist.
Other Transfer Targets for United in the Final Days of the Transfer Window
Sofyan Amrabat remains the top priority in midfield for the 20-time Premier League champions. They are now pushing for the transfer and negotiating with Fiorentina for their prized asset. The player is currently not involved with the Italian team’s first team.
In terms of outgoings, potential departures of Donny Van de Beek and Harry Maguire are still on the cards, however, injury to Raphael Varane could lead to Maguire staying at the club beyond the deadline day.
