Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso is closing on his move to Barcelona following the £62million signing of Marc Cucurella from Brighton.
Alonso is understood to have said farewells to staff at Chelsea's Cobham training ground as he looks to seal his transfer this weekend.
He has won five major trophies in six years with the Blues and played over 200 games for the club.
The 31-year-old agreed personal terms months ago and has a two year deal lined up.
However, Barcelona were warned by La Liga on Friday that they will not be allowed to register any of their new signings unless further cuts are made.
