As can be seen in the tweet above, Chelsea are confident at concluding a deal and Cucurella would have no objections to joining the London club.
If Chelsea complete the signing, he will be the third signing of the summer for the blues after Sterling and Koulibaly. Chelsea could also still sign a centre back before the window runs out.
