Currently, Cucurella is joining the Spanish national team to prepare for the World Cup opening match against Cape Verde. However, rumors related to the 27-year-old player's future still continuously appear after Chelsea's disappointing season.
The London team only finished 10th in the Premier League, so they could not win a ticket to European cups next season. Although Chelsea has appointed Xabi Alonso with the hope of opening a new phase, many sources say that Cucurella is ready to look for other challenges after three years wearing the Stamford Bridge shirt.
Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are both said to be closely monitoring the situation of the Spanish defender. Meanwhile, Manchester United has also emerged as a potential destination as the Old Trafford team wants to find a long-term replacement for Luke Shaw.
Before the rumors related to the future, Cucurella appeared quite cautious when asked by the Spanish media. He said: "Currently I don't want to talk about it," Cucurella shared with El Partidazo de COPE.
However, the Chelsea defender affirmed that he is still satisfied with his current life in London and avoids unnecessary pressures: "I am very happy with my current life and my family too.
Don't drive me crazy. I don't like bringing more worries. I already have enough things to worry about with my family," Cucurella added.
According to British media, Chelsea are ready to consider leaving Cucurella if they receive a suitable offer this summer. The transfer fee that the London team is asking for is said to be around 40 to 50 million euros.
Among the interested teams, Barcelona is considered a destination that Cucurella is particularly interested in. However, the Nou Camp team currently prioritizes adding a new striker to replace Robert Lewandowski in the future.
In addition, Chelsea previously also received interest from Barcelona for Joao Pedro. However, the English team determined that the young Brazilian talent is untouchable in this summer transfer window.
