An exclusive report is now claiming that Chelsea are circling around a possible move to sign Maximiliano Ara\u00fajo this summer.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

There most certainly is a situation brewing up with Marc Cucurella right now, so Chelsea could do with a new left back this summer if the Spanish international is set to go as expected. Cucurella out, Araujo in perhaps? Well, there\u2019s certainly some links starting to bubble up on both stories as we approach another summer transfer window.<\/p>\n

Cucurella will be some big boots to fill if he does go, but with only two years left on his current contract at Chelsea, you\u2019d suspect that now he will be leaving unless he agrees a new contract extension at Chelsea.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know a lot about Araujo, but apparently Manchester United are in for him as well.<\/p>\n

Chelsea are said to be monitoring the situation after being mentioned as an interested club.<\/span><\/p>\n
