Marc Cucurella has caught the attention of Barcelona once again, with reports suggesting that the La Masia graduate could be set for a return to his boyhood club. The left-back, who currently plays for Getafe, has been in impressive form this season and has reportedly attracted interest from several top clubs, including Barcelona.
Cucurella spent 10 years at Barcelona’s famous youth academy before leaving the club in 2019. The 23-year-old made his first-team debut for Barcelona in a Copa del Rey match in 2017, and while he was never able to establish himself as a regular starter at the Camp Nou, he has since gone on to prove his quality at Getafe.
Known for his attacking prowess and defensive solidity, Cucurella has been one of the standout performers for Getafe this season. His versatility and work rate have made him a key player for the Madrid-based club, and it comes as no surprise that Barcelona are now considering bringing him back to the club.
With Jordi Alba approaching the latter stages of his career, Barcelona are in need of a long-term replacement at left-back, and Cucurella could be the perfect fit. The Spaniard is familiar with the club’s style of play and could seamlessly slot back into the team, providing competition for Alba and potentially taking over as the first-choice left-back in the future.
While nothing has been confirmed yet, Cucurella’s potential return to Barcelona has already generated excitement among fans of the Catalan club. The prospect of seeing a La Masia graduate come back and succeed at the highest level is always a thrilling one, and Cucurella has the talent and determination to make it happen.
For now, Cucurella remains focused on his performances for Getafe, but a move to Barcelona could be on the cards in the near future. If the transfer does go through, it would be a homecoming for Cucurella and a chance for him to fulfill his potential at the club where it all began for him. Only time will tell if this transfer will materialize, but one thing is for sure – Barcelona fans will be eagerly awaiting any updates on Cucurella’s potential return to the Camp Nou.
