00:03This is the story of Cesar Azpilicueta, the 7 million pounds steal.
00:07In 2012, Chelsea signed Azpilicueta from Marseille for just 7 million pounds.
00:12No huge hype, no massive headlines, just another 23-year-old fullback who could play on either side.
00:17Fans nicknamed him Dave because they didn't know how to pronounce his name when he first arrived.
00:22And over the next 11 years, he became one of the most reliable defenders in the Premier League.
00:26Seven major trophies, including two Premier League titles, the Champions League and the Europa League.
00:31He's played over 500 games for Chelsea and covering every defensive role without a single complaint.
00:37And for 7 million pounds, Chelsea got a decade of world-class leadership.
00:40And that's less than some clubs pay for a backup goalkeeper.
