Journalist Bobby Vincent, a senior Chelsea correspondent, reported on X that there is “ZERO chance” Marc Cucurella will leave Stamford Bridge this summer.
This comes after a report from Fichajes claimed Al-Nassr are preparing a €70m (£60.74m) bid. The move was reportedly driven by Cristiano Ronaldo’s personal request.
Will Marc Cucurella leave Chelsea for Al-Nassr?
The Blues are not interested as confirmed by Bobby Vincent. They see the Spaniard as a key player. Since joining the Blues, the 27-year-old has amassed 113 appearances, contributing eight goals and providing nine assists, per Transfermarkt.
Cucurella had a tough start after his £60m move from Brighton in 2022. But he has since turned things around.
In the past year, Cucurella helped Spain win Euro 2024. He also played a big part in Chelsea’s FIFA Club World Cup triumph in the United States and before that was integral in the West London club’s success in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
Now a regular under new boss Enzo Maresca, his place in the squad looks secure.
Fichajes suggested Ronaldo wanted Cucurella after his Saudi club, Al-Nassr, signed Joao Felix from Chelsea.
But Vincent’s report puts the rumours to rest. Chelsea are keeping their star left-back.
