Barcelona are reportedly in advanced talks with Cesar Azpilicueta.

The Chelsea defender will become a free agent in the summer and can sign a pre-contract agreement with a foreign club next month.

According to El Nacional, talks are already advanced between the Blues captain and the Blaugrana.

New manager Xavi is desperate to add Azpilicueta's experience to his squad.

The Catalan has pushed president Joan Laporta to complete the signing of Azpilicueta.

32-year-old Azpilicueta has appeared in just one of Chelsea's last seven Premier League matches.
