Zapping World Eleven The schedule of the blues for the 2022 World Cup
Since the start of the summer transfer window, the battle has raged between Barça and Chelsea. If the Blaugranas managed to sign Andreas Christensen for free and snatch Raphinha from the clutches of the Blues, the London team is close to recruiting Jules Koundé and no longer wants to give gifts to the Catalans. In this sense, Thomas Tuchel tackled Barça and their interest in César Azpilicueta, without wanting to pay the price.
“We have a player who is an international in the Spanish national team, who captains Chelsea and I see him at that same level, but it seems like Barcelona don’t see him at that level. (…) I’m not not sure if you want to give Azpi what he wants because it is also a question of what we want” declared the Chelsea coach, according to comments relayed by Sport.
It remains to be seen whether Thomas Tuchel will actually be ready to block a transfer from César Azpilicueta, who for his part wants to join Barça, one year from the end of his contract at Chelsea.
to summarize
Thomas Tuchel did not hide his annoyance at Barca’s interest in Chelsea captain César Azpilicueta. “We have a player who is an international in the Spanish national team, who captains Chelsea and I see him at that same level, but it seems like Barcelona don’t see him at that level. (…) I’m not not sure if you want to give Azpi what he wants because it is also a question of what we want” said the Blues coach.
