Transfer interest in and international standing of Lucas Da ~~Cunha~~ Cun

Lucas Da Cunha, a 25-year-old midfielder for Como, has seen a significant rise in profile following a standout international debut for France. During a 1-0 Nations League victory against Belgium, Da Cunha was praised by manager Zinédine Zidane for his technical ability and composure in a deep-lying role. This performance has intensified interest from major European clubs. Chelsea is reportedly monitoring the midfielder as a potential transfer target, though they face competition from several Premier League sides, including Manchester United, Liverpool, ~~and~~ Aston ~~Villa. While interest remains high, securing~~ Villa, Newcastle United, Brighton and Hove Albion, Nottingham Forest, and Bournemouth. Securing a transfer may be challenging as Da Cunha recently signed a contract extension with Como that runs until 2031. On the international stage, Da Cunha is working to solidify his position within the France squad. Following a mistake during a match against Italy, he faced scrutiny but expressed a determination to prove his presence is not due to luck. He noted that his style focuses on technical ability and risk-taking through passing rather than purely physical ball recovery, stating he feels “pleasure rather than pressure” in his new role. Manager Zinédine Zidane has maintained support for the player, viewing errors as part of “collective responsibility rather than individual failure.”
