Spanish International confirms he will be a Chelsea player this summer
Marc Cucurella has admitted that he is not looking to leave Chelsea this summer despite suggestions that he could be one of several players sold by the club in the coming months.
Cucurella has made 59 appearances for Chelsea over the last two season and is yet to win any silverware with the club. His current contract, which he signed upon arrival in west London, runs through to the summer of 2028
But there has been some speculation in the media that he could be one of the players that the CHELSEA board allow to leave this transfer window -and a move back to La Liga as been mooted in the Spanish press over the past few weeks.
However – Cucurella appears reinvigorated by the challenge of playing under new manager Enzo Maresca and is not even entertaining the idea of a future switch to La Liga, where he played as a youngster.
“La Liga is my home, but I’m very happy in England,” he said when speaking ahead of Spain’s semi-final against France on Tuesday. “Which is a great experience for me and my family.”
Speaking of his relationship with Chelsea target Nico Williams, Cucurella added, “The chemistry is based off the field.
“We found it without looking for it. We have similar personalities, happy people. Let him invent, I’ll be there for whatever is needed.”

Cucurella may be saying this now – but we are sure that if Barcelona do make an official offer this summer – he would find it very difficult not to entertain an offer.
But it is great news that he does want to stay because he has been very impressive for Spain during these last few weeks of the Euros.
