Chelsea co-owner Boehly: Why I signed Cucurella

Since his arrival in 2022, the Spain fullback has developed into one of the best players for his position anywhere in the world.

But Boehly concedes there was only one reason why he went for the left-back at the time.

He recalled.,"I became temporary sports director for a summer without having any idea what made a good football player, but I knew if Manchester City wanted Marc Cucurella, then I wanted him.

 "It was really that simple..."

Boehly was speaking at a panel debate held by iConnctions.
