Atletico Madrid are allegedly keen on signing Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta this summer.

The veteran defender has been a key figure for the Blues during the 2020-21 season, scoring one goal and two assists in 35 appearances in all competitions.

Azpilicueta’s present deal at Stamford Bridge is expected to terminate next summer, however, implying that, the way things are, he will be allowed to go into talks with foreign clubs from January 2022.

A new report asserted that Thomas Tuchel’s side were planning to open contract talks with the Spaniard, who has made 22 appearances for the Premier League giants this term.

In any case, as per El Gol Digital, Atletico need to exploit the uncertainty encompassing his future by launching a bid during this current summer’s transfer window.

Azpilicueta has shown his flexibility by operating as a right-back, a centre back and a right-sided wing-back since Tuchel’s arrival in the club recently.
