Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso signing for Barcelona is getting ever much more likely. This Thursday, Barca president, Joan Laporta, met with the brand new Chelsea owner. Now, this Friday, 'Sport' reviews that the players can be sitting down with the Chelsea board very soon on the way to finalise the deals on their movements to the Catalan capital.
The players' fee tags will be affordable and in step with Barcelona's cutting-edge monetary abilties. In reality, 'Los Azulgranas' had been working on now not having to pay greater than ten million euros for each player. Taking into consideration that both players' contracts with The Blues will soon expire, this appears plausible.
The latest assembly among the 2 clubs specially helped the situation regarding Azpilicueta, captain and key guy in Thomas Tuchel's plans. It has been the German manager himself, who led Chelsea to Champions League glory in 2021, who has shown the maximum competition to Azpilicueta's exit. However, the whole lot now factors in the direction of him having to chunk the bullet and wave good-bye to the Spaniard.
Alongside the Alonso and Azpilicueta offers, the 2 events labored on a likely Frenkie de Jong move. However, one operation will not genuinely facilitate the opposite. The Barca board are looking to hold their ft at the floor and remain aware of the comings and goings this summer. They are operating with caution.
