Barca interest in Christensen

Andreas Christensen

Barcelona are reportedly hoping to convince Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen to swap Stamford Bridge for the Nou Camp.

The 22-year-old joined Chelsea’s academy in 2012 and was handed his first senior outing in the 2014-15 campaign.

Christensen made a two-season loan switch to Borussia Monchengladbach between 2015 and 2017 in order to further his development, and was a key figure under Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge last season.

However, he has been restricted to just one Premier League appearance in 2018-19, with Maurizio Sarri preferring the partnership of Antonio Rudiger and David Luiz.

Reports suggest Barcelona have been monitoring his situation over the last few months and a bid could be in the offing next month.

It’s understood that contact has already been made with Christensen’s representatives.
