Template:Spanish name César Azpilicueta Tanco (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈθe̞saɾ ˌaθpiliˈkwe̞ta ˈtaŋko̞], born 28 August 1989 in Pamplona, Navarre) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Olympique de Marseille in France, as a right back.

Club career

Osasuna

A product of hometown side CA Osasuna's youth system, Azpilicueta made his La Liga debut on 8 April 2007, in a 0–2 away defeat against Real Madrid, while still registered with the reserve team. He started his career as a midfielder.

In 2007–08, with other teammates injured, Azpilicueta established himself as a first team regular at the age of just 18 became first-choice, albeit as right defender. He went on to retain this position for the following season, appearing in all but two games for the club.

Marseille

Azpilicueta playing with Marseille in the 2009–10 season.

On 21 June 2010, French club Olympique de Marseille confirmed an agreement had been reached with Osasuna for the transfer of Azpilicueta, in a four-year contract for €7 million.[1] A week later, the Navarrese confirmed the agreement, with the transfer fee possibly rising to as much as €9.5 million, depending on appearances.[2] In his UEFA Champions League debut, in a home game against FC Spartak Moscow, he scored the match's only goal, but in his own net.[3]

On 27 November 2010, in the early minutes of a 4–0 home win against Montpellier HSC – which meant Marseille climbed to the top of the league – Azpilicueta ruptured the anterior cruciate ligaments in his left knee,[4] being sidelined for six months.

In August 2012, amid speculation of clubs showing interest in Azpilicueta, including Premier League's Chelsea, Marseille confirmed that he could leave, saying, "We have three players we have agreed to let leave – César Azpilicueta, Stéphane Mbia, and either Loïc Rémy or André Ayew. If Chelsea makes a fair offer for Aspi [Azpilicueta], we will let him leave. If there is a good offer for Stéphane Mbia, we will let him leave too. We are working in good terms both with César and Stéphane."[5] Later in the same month, Azpilicueta told that his "thoughts split between Marseille and Chelsea" and that if his "departure can help Marseille's finances" he'd be willing to leave.[6]

International career

Azpilicueta playing for the Spain under-21s.

In 2007, Azpilicueta helped Spain's U19 win the UEFA European Championship. Shortly after, he upgraded to the under-21s, being picked for the 2009 European Championships in Sweden, starting three matches in an eventual group stage exit.

On 11 May 2010, 20-year old Azpilicueta was named by senior side manager Vicente del Bosque in a provisional list of 30 players, in view of the forthcoming FIFA World Cup; eventually, he did not make the final cut.

Azpilicueta was picked for Spain's squad for the 2012 Summer Olympics, after missing out on selection for the UEFA Euro 2012 tournament. He only appeared in one game in London, however, as the national team exited in the group stage.
