Barcelona have offered Chelsea captain, César Azpilicueta, a two-year deal with an option to extend for a further season.

This was disclosed by respected football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano.

According to Romano, talks started in December, but Barcelona are still waiting for Azpilicueta to make a final decision.

He disclosed this in a tweet via his Twitter handle on Friday ahead of Chelsea's Premier League tie with Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Romano tweeted: "Barcelona have offered César Azpilicueta a two year deal with an option to extend for a further season. Talks started in December but Barça are still waiting for Azpilicueta to make the final decision.

"Chelsea hope for Azpi to stay but still no communication on player side."

Azpilicueta's current deal with Chelsea will expire at the end of the season.

The Spaniard is yet to sign a new contract with the Champions League holders.
