Brighton’s Marc Cucurella Hands in Transfer Request After Man City’s £30m Offer Rejected
In a calculated bid to push through a move to Manchester City, Brighton defender, Marc Cucurella has handed in a transfer request.
However, the development has not changed Brighton’s stance on holding firm in their valuation for the 24-year-old, as reported by Sky Sports.
The Seagulls have rejected a £30m bid for the full-back from defending Premier League champions City and value the Spaniard at £50m.
Cucurella enjoyed a hugely successful first Premier League season after joining from Getafe in a deal worth around £15m last summer and was named Brighton’s player of the season.
Brighton do not want to let Cucurella leave and it would take a huge offer for them to sell as he has four years remaining on his contract at the Amex. However, the left-back has now pushed for a move by asking to be sold.
