Christensen or Christensen (name)
Has become one of Barcelona's most crucial players and his outstanding performances have caught the attention of other clubs in Europe. With Xavi playing him at the back, he performed well in away games against Paris, Real Madrid and against Girona.
A number of European heavyweight clubs have already expressed interest in Christensen. Considering that he will also represent Denmark at the Euros in the summer, his price tag is likely to rise further. Denmark will face England, Serbia and Slovenia in the group stage.
Christensen grew up in the Chelsea youth system and made his Premier League debut in 2015. He spent two seasons on loan at Borussia Monchengladbach before returning to Chelsea after winning the Champions League with the team in 2021. In July 2022, he joined Barcelona as a free agent. If Barcelona were to sell him, the transfer fee would be considered a pure profit, which would go a long way towards helping the club meet financial fair play rules.
Christensen's current contract with Barcelona expires in 2026, but there are no plans to extend it. He feels comfortable with both the club and the city, so the final decision is up to him. However, his decision could be influenced by Barcelona's transfer plans for next season.
Guido Rodriguez is reportedly expected to join Barcelona as a free agent after his contract with Betis expires. In addition, Xavi is also looking to sign a top-class full-back in the summer, with Kimmich and Zubimendi among their preferred options. If Xavi's goal is realized, Christensen may move back to the center back position. He performed well at center back last season, helping his team win La Liga and the Spanish Super Cup. However, his future role depends on the future of some of the players in the squad, including Araujo and Erick Garcia.
