Azpilicueta: You can call me Dave

Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta has become a fan favourite after some tremendous performances he has showcased this season.

Even though his surname is hard to pronounce, the Chelsea fans have been calling him Dave.

The Spaniard has declared how he enjoys the nickname Dave during an interview with Chelsea magazine.

“Even in the street, they call me Dave, so I know that it is done in a good way,” he said.

“I am okay with it. I think they know my name really, and they can probably all spell it, but it’s an affectionate nickname for me, so I don’t mind.”
