It was during the Club World Cup that Marcos Alonso sat down with a group of journalists and discussed what may come next for him at Chelsea.
"I've always had interest from other clubs but I am happy to be here to achieve these kinds of trophies," the Spaniard said during a rather candid interview. "For me, I still have another year-and-a-half on my contract. It’s a question [what happens next] where maybe I don’t know the answer.
"It doesn’t just depend on what I want. But as I said before, I will always try to give 100% and always focus on the next game. I am very happy here so why not [stay and sign a new contract]."
