Xavi was hoping to add the Spanish defender to his ranks for the season

Cesar Azpilicueta will not come to Barcelona in the end. The Basque footballer will renew with Chelsea for the next two seasons, until 2025. The announcement is imminent.

The start of the Premier League, this weekend, and the player’s desire to resolve his future before the competition begins, have been key reasons for him to stay at Stamford Bridge, where he arrived in 2012.

In this way, Barcelona will be without one of the key objectives for the transfer window in the fence.

Now the club will have to keep looking at the market to reinforce the defence.
