Kukurelya: Real and Barcelona are world famous

“Chelsea” and Spain national team defender Marc Cucurella shared his thoughts on the popularity of the clubs “Real” and “Barcelona.” This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

He said that when he came to England to join “Brighton,” he was surprised to see that English players preferred playing for “Real” or “Barcelona” rather than “Arsenal” or “Chelsea.” This helped him realize that “Real” and “Barcelona” have a great reputation worldwide.

As Cucurella emphasized, these clubs may not have financial capabilities at the level of teams in the English Premier League, but their rich history and prestige allow them to attract many good players. Cucurella began his football career with the teams “Espanyol” and “Barcelona.”

He played only one match in the main squad of the Catalans. Later, he played for the clubs “Eibar” and “Getafe,” and three years ago joined “Chelsea.”

In his opinion, clubs like “Real” and “Barcelona” enjoy great respect not only in Spain but also among players and fans worldwide. The historical legacy and achievements of these clubs have made them one of the leading centers of world football.

Therefore, many young footballers dream of playing there, and these clubs always attract high-level players to their ranks. Marc Cucurella emphasized that he came to “Chelsea” to further develop his football career and wants to prove himself in this team.
