The Danish defender is suffering from a partial tear of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, which occurred accidentally following a bad movement during a training session.

After medical examinations carried out by the club’s staff, it was decided to opt for conservative treatment, ruling out surgery for the time being. This option raises hopes for a quicker return, although caution is still advised.

Barça nevertheless specified that the exact duration of his absence will depend on the player’s progress, without giving an official return date.

This injury represents a new headache for the coaching staff, as Christensen is an important part of the Catalans’ defensive rotation.
