“After so many years living my dream, I feel it’s time to begin a new chapter in my life. I am grateful for every moment – the victories, the tough losses, the challenges, and most importantly, the people I’ve met along this journey,” Azpilicueta stated, as reported by AFP.
He began his career at Osasuna before moving to Olympique Marseille, from where he made the switch to Stamford Bridge. After a decade with “The Blues,” he transferred to Atletico Madrid, and last summer, Sevilla became his final club destination.
