Manchester United tipped to reignite interest in Chelsea star as Mason Greenwood made 'priority'

Chelsea star Marc Cucurella is reportedly back on Manchester United's radar as part of Sir Jim Ratcliffe's major changes this summer.

United's summer plans are set to involve bargain deals and smart recruitment in Ratcliffe's first window at the club. Failure to qualify for the Europa League or the Europa Conference League will mean the club will miss out on key revenue from continental competitions.

However, plans and meetings are already taking place ahead of the upcoming transfer window and according to TEAMtalk, Cucurella is one of the names being discussed. United are said to have the Spanish defender back on their radar following initial interest in January.
