Cucurella wants to join Manchester City in order to push through a transfer.
Sky Sports News understands that the development has not changed the stance of the Seagulls in regards to the valuation of the 24 year old.
The Seagulls have turned down a £30 million bid from City for the full-back.
Cucurella, who joined from Getafe in a deal worth around 15 million pounds, was named the player of the season for the Seagulls.
Cucurella has four years left on his contract at the Amex and it would take a lot of money to let him go. The left-back asked to be sold.
Cucurella would provide healthy competition for an outstanding left-back if he moved to the City, according to Jamie.
According to the former defender, Man City have always lacked an outstanding left-back. They have had different players at different times.
You don't know if Kyle Walker is playing right-back or left-back. Cancelo has gone in there and been as good as anyone, but I'm surePep would prefer a left footer there.
When you ask if he is worth it, Man City usually spends up to 50 million dollars on full-backs. If you play well, you think he's worth the money.
When you see him, he looks like a classy operator. I'm sure he will be a good signing because he plays the same type of football as Manchester City.
It's something that Man City might need now that they have more competition for Cancelo on the other side.
The game between Manchester City and West Ham will be broadcast on Sky Sports.
The first Manchester derby of the season will take place on October 1 at the Etihad.
The champion's last game before the winter World Cup is at home to Brentford on November 12th and then they face Elland Road on Boxing Day.
It will be difficult for City to get off to a good start with back-to-back games against Manchester United and Chelsea.
As the campaign draws to a close, the team will play their final two games of the season at home to Chelsea on May 20 and away to Brentford on May 28, with the final game taking place on May 28th.
The transfer window will open on June 10 and close at 11pm on September 1st.
