The current deal is worth £120,000 a week and runs out in 2020.
Although he has two years left to run on his present contract, the team don’t want to take chances and have decided to to retain his services for the long term.

The Spanish international joins Marcos Alonso and N’Golo Kante in signing a new Chelsea contract recently.

Azpilicueta has been an integral part of the Chelsea team since he joined in 2012.

He played every single game in the 2016-17 season, and 37 out of 38 games in 2017-18 and 2015-16, with only one of those appearances coming as a substitute.
With over 6 years in west London, he has helped the team win two Premier League titles, an FA Cup, a League Cup, and a Europa League trophy.

The Blues are currently third in the Premier League, having conceded 11 goals in 13 games, giving them one of the best defensive records in the league.
