"Going back to Spain? I have one more year on my contract. I've said before that I'd like to, but in the end, it's not entirely up to me. It's clear that the desire to one day play in Spain is there", those were the words of a player who wears the Blue uniform but who, as of today, no longer wants to be with Chelsea because of the love he feels for his homeland.

Or at least that is the only thing that explains the fact that a player like Marcos Alonso wants to return to Spain and play for FC Barcelona according to the Spanish press. The left-back, who last season accumulated 4 goals and 5 assists in 28 games for Chelsea, is about to return to Spain at a bargain price.
And the client in this operation is FC Barcelona, which has long been looking for the player who has been playing at Stamford Bridge since 2016, so it already has its agents working on recruiting the player who ends his contract with the Blues next year.
And is that even though the English club is immersed in a process of sale due to Roman Abramovich's decision to sell the club by the English government and UEFA, everything seems to indicate that the sale would develop smoothly. Therefore, it is very likely that the player will be able to play in La Liga next season if the sale is completed during the transfer season. According to RadioEstadio Noche, FC Barcelona's head coach, Xavi Hernández, is convinced that he needs the player to reinforce the left side of the backline, which would explain how advanced the negotiations are, according to the program RadioEstadio Noche.
Marcos Alonso would leave at a bargain price
The price of the player according to his Transfermarkt data is around 15 million euros although FC Barcelona would also be willing to wait until the player's contract ends in 1 year, due to their economic limitations. But while the arrangements between Barcelona and Chelsea are confirmed, the player would undoubtedly be very happy to play in the first division of his country, where he has never been able to play before.
