Marcos Alonso pens new Chelsea deal

Chelsea have announced left-back Marcos Alonso has signed a new deal to keep him in West-London for another five years.

The Spaniard joined The Blues during the summer of 2016 for a fee of £24m.

He has gone on to make a total of 92 appearances, winning both the premier league and FA Cup.

Alonso’s defensive capabilities have been questioned by blues fans. Some see him as a weak link.

His attacking ability contrasts the negativity as the Spanish international offer a lot more going forward having switched to a more advanced wing-back role under Antonio Conte.
