Cesar Azpilicueta has quashed talk of a rift caused by Antonio Rudiger at Chelsea.

The Blues captain said: “With Toni, we didn’t have an issue and we have been working together for a few years,” said the Blues captain.

“That news from outside, we’re not sure so that’s why Tammy and myself we both tweeted.

“Everything is fine and I can say that didn’t happen. We didn’t have any issues and we don’t have. We always work together.

“As other players, we have sometimes our discussions, normal in football.

“When results are not going well, everybody has more tension around but nothing further than this.

“Normal footballers like normal workers in their offices or with other jobs with pressure who have to deliver and nothing further than this. There is not an issue, we are so committed.”
