Spanish defender César Azpilicueta renewed his contract with Chelsea for two more seasons on Thursday, a commitment that ends the rumors about his possible signing for FC Barcelona.
"César Azpilicueta has signed a new contract with Chelsea, to continue what is already a decade of blue for another two years," the London team said in a statement.

The Spanish international was on the list of names that sounded strong to continue reinforcing a very active Barça in the market. However, Azpilicueta finally stays at a Chelsea of which he is captain and to which he arrived in 2012.
