Chelsea defender, Cesar Azpilicueta says he is flattered by interest from Barcelona but wants to continue playing for Chelsea.
.
The Spain joined Chelsea from Marseille in 2012.
.
"It's flattering to be linked to Barcelona: it means you're playing well," he told The Guardian.
.
"I wasn't hearing those sort of stories last season. That's a consequence of us being top of the Premier League, things are going well.
.
"My objective since I arrived was to grow as a player and a person. I've adapted to the city, to the country. I feel settled, I'm comfortable with the language, my family is very happy.
.
"Right now my only objective is to continue with Chelsea."
.
Azpilicueta signed a contract until 2020 last December.
.
However, the Chelsea defender is hopeful the club can keep all of their key players for next season.
.
"It would be a shame [if players left] because we have a great team," Azpilicueta said.
.
"But the club will work on it with the coach and the technical staff. They will know what he wants.
.
"We need to get this season finished first. Then there will be all sorts of rumours. In the end, I'm sure, we will have a very competitive team again."
