Spanish Defender Marcos Alonso Reportedly Signs 2-Year Contact Extension at Chelsea

Chelsea full back Marcos Alonso has reportedly signed a new deal to remain at Chelsea until 2023.

The Spaniard's initial contract was set to expire in 2021. However, his solid displays on the left flank have led to the Blues offering the full back an extension.

That is according to ESPN, who report that the Londoners will likely announce the new deal officially on Wednesday. It is also believed that the marauding defender will earn significantly more than he did on his prior agreement.

Alonso joined the Blues for £24m from Fiorentina in the summer of 2016, coming in as a relatively low-profile signing.
