Chelsea star’s transfer talks “at the final stage”

Posted by

Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso reportedly looks closer to sealing a transfer to Barcelona, according to journalist Christian Falk.

The Sport Bild journalist has tweeted that talks over Alonso’s move to Barca are now at the final stages, so one imagines it won’t be too long now before the Spain international finally completes a move from Stamford Bridge to the Nou Camp.

See below for Falk’s tweet on Alonso, whose future has been in doubt for some time now…

Chelsea fans will perhaps have mixed feelings about this, with Alonso proving something of an underrated figure in their recent success, even if he’s far from the best player in the world.

It’s also, on balance, probably a good time to be selling the 31-year-old, who is unlikely to have that much longer left at the very highest level, meaning CFC also won’t have too many more opportunities to cash in on his sale.

Barcelona have had a busy summer and this could be another useful addition to their squad alongside the likes of Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Franck Kessie.

  1. If you STILL must have this Kounde, even though he wants Barca,—- use Alonso, and Azpi. They don’t get these two, unless we sign Kounde. Surely this stupid saga has gone on long enough now. Personally, I would sell them our full backs at a good price, and get another defender. How are the club going to get the best out of a player, if he does not want to be with us. He has had plenty of time to choose us.

  2. Chel must sell off alonso yes, barkly, ruben, emerson, batchuyi, ziyech, from first team. Go all out and staight like man c and buy cucurrella, kunde, ronaldo or get scamacca out from west ham. No time waste. Levi, borja, gallager to remain as back up. My best 11 3:4:3 are defence; kulibaly, silva & kunde. Sups; levi, chaloba, cucurrella, azipillicuta, mid field; james, kante, gallager, ben. Subs; kova, Jorginho, upfront; mount, scamacca/ cr7, sterling, subs; timo, havert, pulisic, odoi, borja.

  3. I think unhappy players(Werner, azp, Alonso, ziyech,) should all be allowed to go just as pep did,then focus on the commited ones # rebuild chelsea

  4. i think ceaser and alonso should b sold and purchase other players than them departing for free next season
