If Azpilicueta still wishes to depart, Boehly must not stand in his way despite the preference for him to stay. Boehly must sit down with the captain and discuss his future. A new contract could be suggested, or even rewarding him with a fantastic transfer window as the German has only brought in Marcus Bettinelli, Saul Niguez and Romelu Lukaku during his time at the club, none of which are regular starters at the moment.
