Chelsea Secure New Deal for Marc Cucurella
Defender Commits Future to the Blues
Chelsea have officially reached an agreement with Marc Cucurella over a new deal, ensuring the Spanish left-back remains a key part of the club’s long-term plans. The decision comes after Cucurella’s standout performances in the latter half of last season, where his defensive solidity and attacking contributions won praise from fans and the coaching staff alike.
Sources close to the negotiations reveal that the new contract will keep Cucurella at Stamford Bridge until at least 2028, with improved terms reflecting his growing importance to the team. Chelsea’s hierarchy view the 26-year-old as a vital player in their ongoing project, with head coach Enzo Maresca reportedly playing a key role in convincing him to extend his stay.
Cucurella joined Chelsea from Brighton in 2022 and has since adapted to multiple roles, including left-back and left center-back, offering tactical flexibility. His renewed commitment is expected to bring stability to the squad ahead of the upcoming season, where Chelsea will be competing both domestically and in Europe.
The deal signals Chelsea’s intent to build a competitive and balanced team by retaining core talents rather than making wholesale changes. Fans will now be eager to see how Cucurella’s experience and versatility contribute to the club’s push for silverware in the months ahead.
