Marcos Alonso's back! Ex-Chelsea star opens up on 'complicated' Barcelona spell but isn't seeking 'revenge' ahead of La Liga reunion

Champions League

Barcelona

Brest

LaLiga

Espanyol

Celta Vigo

<p>The former Chelsea ace swapped Barcelona for Celta this summer after struggling with injuries and a lack of game time last season. Despite not featuring prominently for the Catalan team, the 33-year-old has no ill will against his former employers ahead of their La Liga match this weekend.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>He said: "I don’t need any revenge. Last year I didn’t have continuity and it’s complicated, especially because of the injury. Now I’m enjoying football again, I’m very happy and looking forward to the game."</p>

WHAT MARCOS ALONSO SAID

<p>Former Spain international Alonso made 45 appearances for Barcelona in his two years there after joining from Chelsea, but just 25 of those were in the starting XI. A back injury limited his minutes in the second half of last season and with Barca promoting youth academy product Alejandro Balde to the first-choice left-back role, Alonso seemingly made the right call moving to Celta.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Alonso's Celta side, who sit 11th in La Liga, host his former team on Saturday night. The ex-Bolton Wanderers man would surely love to get one over on the Spanish giants.</p>
