Barcelona star now ‘highly likely to leave’ this summer | OneFootball

A member of the defensive ranks at La Liga giants Barcelona looks increasingly likely to be on the move this summer.

That’s according to Mundo Deportivo, who point towards Andreas Christensen as the player in question.

Stopper Christensen has for his part endured an altogether difficult term in Catalunya’s capital in 2024/25.

Owing to a pair of long-term injury problems, the Dane, in fact, took to the pitch in a competitive setting on just six occasions.

Recent weeks saw Christensen play a more notable role, with the former Chelsea man’s solid form despite his lack of match sharpness having proven hugely encouraging from a Barcelona standpoint.

In turn, it may come as something of a surprise to learn that, as things stand, Christensen looks near certain to be on the move over the weeks ahead.

As per a report from MD:

‘Andreas Christensen, whose contract with Barça expires in 2026, is highly likely to leave the club this summer. With the central defender and pivot quotas filled – the two positions Christensen can play in – Barça would be very happy to let the Dane go.’

The lead interest in Christensen’s services comes by way of the Saudi Pro League, where a number of clubs are understood to be keeping a close eye on the 29-year-old’s situation.
