According to European media, Jules Kounde’s transfer from Sevilla will terminate Azpilicueta’s tenure at Stamford Bridge.
Azpilicueta, one of Chelsea’s longest players, served for the team for nine seasons during which he won several trophies.
Mount took over as captain for Chelsea’s defeat to Charlotte on Wednesday because Azpilicueta was injured.
Yes, I’m still young and I’m still learning, but anytime the chance arises to step forward, I want to grab it, Mount told reporters.
I accept the burden of leading the team in the second half since the coach obviously trusted me to do so.
