Chelsea legend set to make history in FIFA Club World Cup as Barcelona chase dream transfer

Chelsea is in the FIFA Club World final, and it means a lot more for one team member in particular.

Cesar Azpilicueta has been here before but fell short with Chelsea's first Champions League-winning side.

This time will be different for Azpilicueta. This time he will be leading the Blues out with the captain's armband with fan favourite Thomas Tuchel as the mastermind behind him.

Azpilicueta, captain, leader, legend. That title has only ever been reserved for former Chelsea captain John Terry. Azpilicueta is the closest we have come to his successor. He has won everything that English club football can offer.

The Blues captain is looking to complete a clean sweep of medals by winning the Club World Cup in addition to his two Premier League titles, Champions League, two Europa Leagues, European Super Cup, FA Cup and League Cup.

"I was part of the 2012 Club World Cup. It hurt a lot." the Chelsea Captain reminisces on his time.

"It was my first season, I wasn't coming from winning the Champions League, but we had a lot of competitions. It looked more normal than it was. You realise how difficult it is after ten years to be back here."

Barcelona is looking to snatch the Spaniard on a free at the end of the season.

As his last wish in a Chelsea shirt, I am sure he would want to lift the one prize he is missing from his collection and be the first Chelsea
