The Spaniard moved to Chelsea for €62M from Brighton ahead of the new season.
Cucurella impressed one and all last season at the left-back position for Brighton through his performances.
He managed 35 EPL appearances last season which helped Brighton to a 9th place finish.
Chelsea were the EPL’s biggest spenders and Cucurella hopes to justify his price tag as the season progresses.
Darwin Nunez
The Uruguayan came in for the outgoing Mané, who moved to Bayern Munich earlier in the summer.
Nunez caught the eye of Liverpool after scoring a staggering 26 goals in 28 matches for Benfica in the Liga Portugal 2021-22.
The Liverpool side missed out on the league title by a sole point last season and hope to see Nunez create the impact to fill the void of Mané.
In 3 appearances, he has scored and assisted a goal each which is a good sign.
Casemiro
The Red Devils endured their worst possible season and needed seismic changes starting from the top.
Ten Hag came in with a shift in mindset and immediately got his man from Los Blancos.
Casemiro has immense winning mentality and success pedigree having won everything in Spain.
The mid-fielder looks to get into the 11 quickly and start his heroics.
