Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso may have played his last game for the club against Wolves this weekend, according to reports, after a big disagreement with manager Thomas Tuchel.
The Blues manager, according to Di Marzio writer Nathan Gissing, had a “heated discussion” with Alonso after the first half of the match, prompting Tuchel to substitute him at the break.
As a result, according to Gissing, the club’s internal consensus is that Alonso will not play for the Blues again, with the 31-year-old set to return to La Liga during the summer transfer window.
In recent years, Alonso has been a valuable member of the Chelsea family; it would be a tragedy to see his tenure at Stamford Bridge come to an end in this manner…

Fans of Chelsea may be worried about the left-back position heading into next season, with Alonso proving to be a significant player this season as a result of the long-term absence of Ben Chilwell, who is out with an injury.
If Chilwell can remain healthy, he’ll be a good alternative for Cardiff City, but the club could do without losing an experienced and dependable player like Alonso at this point in time.
