Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta is reportedly struggling to make up his mind over his future amid interest from Barcelona.

Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta is reportedly struggling to make up his mind over his future, with Barcelona pushing to sign the defender on a free transfer this summer.

Azpilicueta's contract at Stamford Bridge is due to expire at the end of June, and Barcelona have allegedly placed a two-year deal on the table to move to Camp Nou.

Chelsea are believed to have the option to extend his contract by a further 12 months, but the London club's off-the-field matters have complicated the situation.

According to The Express, Azpilicueta is torn between his loyalty to Chelsea and the chance to return to Spain to represent Barcelona.

The 32-year-old refused to entertain suggestions that he could leave his current club when asked about his situation during a recent Spain press conference.

The full-back has again been a vital player for the Blues during the 2021-22 campaign, scoring twice and providing three assists in 35 appearances in all competitions.
