On May 3, Beijing time, according to the Spanish media “World Sport”, Barcelona hopes to strengthen their defense this summer, and two of their interested Chelsea players, Marcos Alonso and Azpilicueta, are willing to join.
Marcos Alonso and Cesar Azpilicueta’s contracts with Chelsea expire next summer, but both want to leave the team this summer and they are willing to play for Barcelona. Barcelona have been interested in Azpilicueta for a long time. They are interested in the defensive ability, leadership and versatile attributes of the player. They are willing to pay a low transfer fee to sign Azpilicueta.
The problem at the moment, though, is that Chelsea have no clear leadership team after Abramovich’s departure, and Azpilicueta is the team’s captain. From this level, he has a moral obligation to create a vacuum in the club’s power and Lead by example in difficult situations.
Alonso has also had many transfer rumors with Barcelona before. The player intends to return to Spain to play this summer. Barcelona approached to loan Alonso in January 2021, but it was ultimately unsuccessful. Now Barcelona hopes that Alonso can strengthen the team’s left-back position, and also hopes that Chelsea can release people at a low price.
