Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella is considering exiting the Stamford Bridge during the January transfer window.

Since his £55m move from Brighton & Hove Albion last summer, the player is yet to show his worth in the Blue shirt.

The Spaniard was linked with a loan move to Manchester United but failed to close to deal before the end of the summer transfer window.

Cucurella’s playtime has been limited since the beginning of the 2023/2024 Premier League campaign, as he has failed to convince his boss Pochettino coupled with injury problems.

The former Brighton player may now consider offers made for him as he craves more playtime.
