Cucurella Urges Sanchez to Stay Focused After Losing Chelsea Starting Spot
Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella has spoken out in support of his teammate Robert Sanchez, encouraging the goalkeeper to keep working hard and avoid unnecessary attention as he navigates a difficult period in his career.
Sanchez, who secured his spot as Chelsea’s first-choice goalkeeper at the start of the season under new manager Enzo Maresca, has faced increasing scrutiny after a series of costly mistakes in the Premier League.
Maresca has already taken action, dropping Sanchez in favor of Filip Jörgensen for Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over West Ham United. This decision has fueled speculation that the manager may permanently replace him as the club’s main goalkeeper.
When asked about Sanchez’s situation in an interview with AS, Cucurella acknowledged the challenges but expressed confidence that his teammate will recover.
“It’s a tough time for him, but what matters most is that he keeps working and stays away from too much attention,” Cucurella said. “Every player at Chelsea has had difficult moments. The key thing is to stay focused, keep pushing, and be ready for the next opportunity when it comes.”

Football legend Thierry Henry has reacted to Lionel Messi’s emotional response after Argentina lost the 2026 FIFA World Cup final to Spain.
It can be recalled that Spain defeated Argentina to lift the 2026 World Cup trophy. While Spain celebrated their victory, cameras captured Messi in tears after the final whistle.
Henry said Messi’s reaction showed just how much the game still means to him.
“Look at what it means to him. If you ever had any doubt about whether the guy still has any fire in his belly, look at him. Look at what it means.”
He added “You won already. And look at the guy. Look at the passion, desire and the love that he has for his country and how much he puts into it.”
Football legend Rio Ferdinand has shared his prediction ahead of the FIFA World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
While many have backed different teams to lift the trophy, Ferdinand said some fans have underestimated Argentina’s quality.
He said “I find it difficult to bet against Argentina. They have demonstrated remarkable character, determination, and resilience. I believe people have been somewhat disrespectful by calling them an average team; they are not.”
He continued “I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful. If you are saying that, you clearly do not watch enough football, as they are an excellent team, and in challenging situations, they become even better and stronger. However, I do believe Spain will win the match.”
