Manchester United is considering the prospect of securing a loan deal for Chelsea’s marginalized full-back, Marc Cucurella, in the upcoming summer transfer window. As per reports, discussions have taken place between Manchester United and Chelsea regarding a potential loan arrangement for the Spanish full-back. However, it’s worth noting that an official bid from Manchester United has not yet been submitted, according to information provided by reliable source Fabrizio Romano.
Delving into the broader context, Manchester United currently finds itself without a natural left-back option. The unavailability of Tyrell Malacia due to an injury, followed by Luke Shaw’s absence due to a muscle-related concern, has left the team without a fitting choice for this position. As a result, in their recent 3-2 victory against Nottingham Forest, coach Erik ten Hag was compelled to field right-back Diogo Dalot on the left flank to address this gap.
