Liverpool's Chelsea club's defender Marc Cucurella revealed to the sports publication Informe that he was very close to transferring to Manchester City:

Man City wanted me before I joined the "aristocrats." They saw me in their ranks; this is one of the best teams in the world.

I wanted to go there. When they came as they did, when Pep Guardiola talks to you, you could even kneel before them if needed.

But these clubs could not reach an agreement.

The 27-year-old Marc Cucurella has been playing for Chelsea since 2022 and has scored 8 goals in 132 matches.
