One of the most important players of the "Brighton" team Marc Cucurella has officially expressed his desire to leave the team and move to the "Manchester City" squad. Fabrizio Romano reported that M. Cucurella, dissatisfied with the situation regarding negotiations with the "citizens," told the "Brighton" management that he wants to leave the team. "The Seagulls" are asking for 50 million pounds for the left-back. "The Athletic" also adds that the requested amount does not suit the "Manchester City" club, which is considering withdrawing from the negotiations. Last season, the 24-year-old Spaniard scored 1 goal and made 1 assist in the "Premier" league. In 2021, M. Cucurella joined the "Brighton" team for 18 million euros.
