Chelsea blocks the exits of Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso

Chelsea sees again how Barça snatches another signing. It is a matter of hours before the Spanish club makes the signing of Koundé official. The London team already had an agreement with the player and had made a similar offer to Sevilla to take the center-back, but he preferred to wait for Barça, who finally seems to be able to get the services of the French international.

Tuchel’s team is not going to sit idly by and is going to block the exits of Marcos Alonso and Azpilicueta to Barça, according to reports from England. Xavi wants the two Spaniards in his team to reinforce both full-backs, but Chelsea are not going to make it easy for them after taking away another signing. Despite the fact that both players have only one year left for their contracts to expire, Chelsea is willing to take that risk and be able to lose both for free without any financial compensation.

The new owner of the English club, Todd Boehly has his worst enemy at Barça when it comes to the market. He first saw Christensen walk away for free to the Barcelona team. Not happy with that Chelsea had reached an agreement with Leeds to sign Raphinha, but Barça came in at the last minute to snatch the signing. Same situation as now with Koundé. The English were also interested in Dembélé’s situationbut finally they chose to take Sterling and the Frenchman ended up renewing with Barça.

Chelsea and Barça are closely linked in this transfer period and so far it always ends the same way, with the Catalan club getting away with it. This does not want to happen again in London and it seems that they will do everything possible so that Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso do not pack their bags for Barcelona and continue one more season at Stamford Bridge.
