The London "Chelsea" team may need a new defender.

The English press reports that the "Blues" player wished to leave Spaniard Marc Cucurella.

The 27-year-old footballer has already informed the "Premier" league club officials about his decision.

It is said that M. Cucurella dreams of moving to the "Barcelona" team, but in that case, the Catalans will have to scrape together a transfer fee ranging from 40 to 50 million euros.

Four years ago, the player was bought from the "Brighton" team for 68 million euros.
