36-year-old AZP: Returning to the national team is not something I care about. The time I spent with Mourinho with the Blues was unforgettable.

The 36-year-old Azpilicueta has continued to perform well after moving to Sevilla on a free transfer this summer. He has played for Chelsea for 11 years and is the darling of Blues fans. Recently, he accepted an exclusive interview with the Arabic media winwin and talked about his Blues career, Mourinho and other topics.

Talking about choosing to join Sevilla this summer

"This summer is very special. I became a free agent. I used this time to take a break to prepare for the challenges of the new season. When Sevilla contacted me, I learned about the club's planning and construction, and I knew who I was. How will I integrate into the new system? I believe that I can become an important member of the team and help the club, coaching staff, team and players make progress together. This is exactly my goal and the reason why I chose to join Sevilla."

Talk about my goals in Sevilla

" It is too early to talk about returning to European competition. Based on the team's performance in the past two seasons, this goal is not realistic. But the fact is that the whole team has the ambition to continue to improve and we are working hard to improve ourselves every day. The season has really started well, but no substantial achievements have been made yet. There is still a long way to go before next May. We must maintain the current rhythm and steadily improve. I think we still have a lot of room for improvement, and hopefully that improvement can translate into points, which is what we want to pursue. "

Is the door still open for the Spanish national team?

"It is an honor for me to represent the national team in various competitions, but I have not been selected for the Spanish national team for a long time. My current goal is to perform at my best in Sevilla. Of course, every player is looking forward to participating in the World Cup, but this is not my current focus. What I need to do is to continue to maintain good form. I know that Spain is now very competitive. There are many good players in the team, and I like to watch them win, but for me personally, now Sevilla does its own thing and we will see how it goes at the end of the season. "

Talking about the 4-1 victory over Barcelona

"This was a great victory with an outstanding performance by the whole team. As we all know, it is unusual to beat Barcelona 4-1. We are very happy that we finally won. 3 points, also because of the fantastic performance of the team. After all, we haven't beaten Barcelona at home for a long time, so everyone is very happy. This victory brought 3 points and also gave us confidence. We hope we can continue to win and continue to improve. We still have a lot to do. "

"From the first moment I arrived here I felt very at home and the people of Seville welcomed me with open arms. I'm really happy and I hope I can help the team and the club. Now I think the focus should not be on what happens next season, but on continuing the good form, enjoying the moment and winning games. That way everything will fall into place and we can discuss other issues at the end of the season. "

Do you plan to stay at Sevilla after the end of this season?

"As I said, I was probably not a big signing for the club. When I joined Chelsea in 2012, the team was already Champions League champions and the competition was very fierce. Throughout my career, I always believed in myself and was patient. Even if I didn't get too much at the beginning. More opportunities to play, but step by step I started to get more playing time and gained trust under each coach. I tried to learn from each of them and become a part of history."

Who is the best coach among the coaches that I have worked with, such as Mourinho, Tuchel and Conte?

"They are all very important. You mentioned all the best coaches in the world, but it is impossible for me to forget any of them because they all played an important role at different stages of my career. I learned different football concepts from them, but the goal is always the same, which is to win championships for the team. I am deeply honored to be able to work with and learn from these coaches."

Talk about what is special about Mourinho

"Frankly speaking, when I first arrived, I didn't get many opportunities when I was at Westminster. I came back a little later because I was participating in the Confederations Cup, so I had to be patient and wait for my opportunity. Mourinho has given me trust and support, and I have been training hard and waiting for opportunities to come. Later I often played at left-back. Although it was not a regular position, he believed that I could contribute to the team in this position. The wonderful time we spent together at Chelsea was unforgettable. "

Is Mourinho's treatment of Salah unfair when he was at Chelsea?

"It's difficult to evaluate. The only thing I can say is that when we played against him in Basel, his performance was amazing, and then he came to Chelsea. After he left, we also played against him many times against Liverpool many times. You know, this kind of thing is part of football, even in the fierce confrontation between Chelsea and Liverpool, we have always maintained a good relationship."

Is Salah the best player in the Premier League?

"He is undoubtedly one of the best players in the history of the Premier League. His stability, attendance rate, trophies won and goals scored are all amazing. When you face him, you need to remain highly concentrated throughout the game, because he is a player who can dribble and score goals. He is very aggressive and is good at moving in small spaces. Once he enters the penalty area, he can shoot quickly with both feet. He is the kind of player who forces you to be alert every second."
