Chelsea demand Barcelona pay fee for Azpilicueta

Chelsea have set their price for captain Cesar Azpilicueta.

The 32-year-old has agreed personal terms with Barcelona.

But the Blues are demanding £7m from Barca in order to allow Azpilicueta his wish to leave, says the Evening Standard.

Chelsea are intent on recouping the same amount they paid to sign Azpilicueta from Marseille ten years ago.

If Barca meet Chelsea's demands, the defender will pocket £11m a season before tax, the report adds.
