Marc Cucurella is actively exploring the possibility of leaving Chelsea during the January transfer window due to his limited playing time under Mauricio Pochettino. Despite joining Chelsea from Brighton last summer, the Spanish left-back has yet to make a single appearance in the Premier League this season, with his sole outing for the Blues occurring in a Carabao Cup match. Cucurella’s growing frustration with his lack of game time has prompted him to seek an exit strategy for the upcoming transfer window, as reported by The Sun.
Looking at the broader perspective, there is speculation that Cucurella may opt to return to his homeland, with Real Madrid reportedly monitoring his situation closely. In January, there is a possibility that Los Blancos could explore the option of acquiring him on loan.
Regarding his future prospects, it’s worth noting that the 25-year-old was linked to a loan move to Manchester United during the summer transfer window. However, the deal fell through at the last moment, as the Red Devils ultimately signed Sergio Reguilon on deadline day.
