The FC Barcelona wants to close the signing of Azpilicueta

FC Barcelona was looking for a player in the market to strengthen its defense for next season and Xavi is already very clear about who that man is going to be: César Azpilicueta.

As reported from Sports worldthe Navarrese defender has become the club’s main objective and, despite the economic situation that Barcelona is going through at the moment and that its intention is to bring in players at zero cost, the Catalans are willing to negotiate with Chelsea.

It should be remembered that the blue team would have executed the clause that allowed them to unilaterally renew their captain’s contract, so Azpilicueta’s link with the Stamford Bridge entity would be extended for one more season, until June 2023.

At the Camp Nou they consider that he can be a key player for them both because of his experience and because of his versatility and Xavi would have asked Joan Laporta to make an effort to bring him, according to the aforementioned media.
