Cesar Azpilicueta has admitted he was considering a return to Spain before agreeing a new contract at Chelsea.
The Spain international, 32, put pen to paper on a fresh two-year deal at Stamford Bridge earlier this month. He was linked with a move to Spanish giants Barcelona for much of the year but has finally put his future to bed by continuing his long-spell with the Blues.
Azpilicueta has been a regular for Chelsea since joining the club a decade ago, making 477 appearances to date and becoming captain. He's won nine trophies at Stamford Bridge - including two Premier League titles, two Europa Leagues and the Champions League.
