Azpilicueta signs new Chelsea deal
Cesar Azpilicueta has signed a new three-and-a-half-year deal with Chelsea, the Premier League club has announced.
Azpilicueta has won the Premier League, EFL Cup and Europa League since joining Chelsea from Marseille in 2012 and is expected to make his 200th appearance for the club when the Blues travel to Sunderland on Wednesday night.
The new deal will keep the Spain international at Stamford Bridge until 2020.
"I'm really happy to have signed a new contract," he told the club's official website.
"Since I arrived here my target was to progress as a player and win trophies. This new contract gives me the chance to continue my relationship with the club, that's what I wanted and obviously I'm really happy here.
"We've had some really good moments so far this season. From day one, we started working very hard.
"We have a new manager with new ideas and I'm really happy to be working with him. Obviously we can still improve but the long-term aim for us is to win trophies, that is what we all want, the players, manager and fans."
