Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta responds to Barcelona transfer question

Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta is tightlipped on the prospect of joining Barcelona this summer.

The Blues defender, 32, is out of contract in June and he is yet to agree a new contract.

Azpilicueta is currently in Abu Dhabi with Chelsea for the Club World Cup tournament.

He was asked directly about the Nou Camp links and his Blues future ahead of today's opening match against Al-Hilal and he replied: “I'm not going to speak about my future.

“We are one day before the semi-final of the tournament.

“Of course, I arrived in the summer of 2012 and I didn't have kids. My kids were born in London and you know how I feel about Chelsea.

“But I am not going to comment on my future."
