Real Madrid secures marc cucurella transfer in principle for post-2026 world cup era
A new chapter is unfolding for Real Madrid. Following a trophy-less season, Florentino Perez, recently re-elected to the club’s presidency, is determined to instigate significant changes. After the announcement of José Mourinho’s appointment as head coach, the club’s management has intensified its efforts in the transfer market.
A wave of key signings expected after the World Cup
An agreement in principle has been established for Marc Cucurella’s transfer to Real Madrid. This move aligns with José Mourinho’s preference for the left-back position. The talented player is therefore poised to depart Chelsea, with his transfer anticipated to be officially confirmed after the upcoming World Cup. The operation is understood to be valued at approximately 50 million euros.
Beyond Marc Cucurella, Real Madrid has made substantial progress in configuring its revamped team. Bernardo Silva, whose contract with Manchester City is expiring, and Ibrahima Konaté, also nearing the end of his contract at Liverpool, are both expected to arrive in the Spanish capital after the World Cup. Additionally, Denzel Dumfries, the right-back for the Netherlands national team and Inter Milan, is also on the list of anticipated new arrivals.
