In a recent development that could shake up the summer transfer window, Atletico Madrid’s Marc Pubill has publicly encouraged his Spain teammate Marc Cucurella to leave Chelsea and join him at the Wanda Metropolitano. The 22-year-old defender, currently at Spain’s World Cup training camp, was questioned by journalists about whether he had already spoken to Cucurella about a potential move. Pubill’s response was candid: “Yes, of course, I have already told him!” When pressed for the Chelsea left-back’s reaction, Pubill smiled and simply said, “Nothing.” Cucurella, who joined Chelsea from Brighton in 2022, has spent four seasons with the Blues. The bond between Pubill and Cucurella, forged as international teammates, could prove pivotal in any transfer negotiations. This revelation adds intrigue to the upcoming transfer window, with Atletico Madrid seemingly keen on strengthening their squad with the Spanish full-back.
