Cesar Azpilicueta, the captain of Chelsea, has Chelsea Signs a Two-Years Contract With Azpilicueta through 2024.
On Thursday night, Chelsea posted the news to their website.
The club announced that “Cesar Azpilicueta has signed a new deal with Chelsea, extending his already ten-year Blues tenure for at least another two years.”
Since coming from Marseille in August 2012, our captain has established himself as one of the team’s most devoted, dependable, and successful players. He has led the team in more than 200 games, and he has now committed his future to Chelsea through 2024.
Azpilicueta has already contributed to one of the most prosperous stretches in Blues history during his time at Stamford Bridge. During his ten years in west London, he has won every major trophy, amassing an impressive collection of nine winner’s medals, including the Premier League (twice), FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, Europa League (twice), UEFA Super Cup, and FIFA Club World Cup.
“Azpilicueta is now one of just six players in history to have won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, UEFA Super Cup, and FIFA Club World Cup. He has also appeared in a club-record 13 cup finals for Chelsea.
The versatile defender, who was selected by his teammates as their Players’ Player of the Year in 2013–14, has led the club since Gary Cahill left in 2019, although he has previously done so on a number of occasions, particularly during that season’s win in the Europa League final.

Azpilicueta has been a key member of Thomas Tuchel’s team most lately, appearing frequently as both wing-back and on the right side of our back three. His 47 appearances for Chelsea previous season brought his total to 476, during which he has scored 17 goals.
Azpilicueta’s new deal will offer him the chance to become the first foreign player to play 500 games for the club, with only Petr Cech having played for the Blues more frequently than the Spaniard.
Azpilicueta expressed his happiness at extending his stay at Chelsea, his home, in a statement regarding the renewal of his contract. Since it has been over ten years since I first came and joined the club, I definitely feel the love and am really forward for the upcoming project.
“I’d like to thank Mr Todd and Mr Behdad for providing me the opportunity to continue my trip at this incredible club, and I’m looking forward to continuing our voyage.” I’m a very proud captain, and I hope we can make many wonderful memories together.”
“We are extremely thrilled that Cesar is continuing at Chelsea for at least two more years,” said Todd Boehly, chairman, after signing the new deal. We are overjoyed that our skipper has demonstrated his excellent devotion and leadership again again. There is still so much we can do together.”
