Former Chelsea star 'will leave Barcelona on a free' after an injury-plagued season - as LaLiga giants prepare for a huge summer overhaul

Former Chelsea defender Marcos Alonso will leave Barcelona as a free agent at the end of the season, according to reports.

The 33-year-old has struggled for game time this term amid a back injury which kept him on the sidelines for three months.

Alonso made 37 appearances in his debut campaign for Barca, following a switch from Stamford Bridge in 2022, as they claimed the LaLiga title.

But with manager Xavi set to depart this summer, there is expected to be some turnover of the squad at the end of the campaign.
