FC Barcelona does not rule out the possibility of cashing in on Andreas Christensen in January. Despite his prolonged inactivity, a Premier League giant could sign him

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The future of Andreas Christensen strongly points to the Premier League in 2025. The Dane has played only one match this season with FC Barcelona due to a tendinopathy in his left Achilles and there is still no return date in January, although the club hopes to give him medical clearance during the first two weeks of the month. In this sense, transfer rumors are once again activated for the player from Lillestrøm

According to the English portal 'CaughtOffside', Manchester United would be very interested in the '15' culé, as the signing of Leny Yoro has not had the expected adaptation. Initially, it is unclear whether the 'red devils' would be interested in a simple loan or a transfer, with the first option being the most logical given that he is a player who has gone more than four months without minutes.

Christensen, a 'discard' for Barça in 2025

While waiting for movements to occur in the winter market, what seems certain is that Christensen will not continue as a Barça player next season. The imminent signing of Jonathan Tah leaves him without a place in a squad where he is already the fifth center-back in Hansi Flick's plans, even surpassed by Eric García, who has stepped up in midfield while Frenkie de Jong, Gavi, and Andreas himself were out.

In any case, both the Dane and García are likely to leave the club soon, although the board's priority is to wait until summer to discuss transfers. Barça does not plan to make signings in January due to their 'Fair Play' issues, so no more than a couple of departures are expected. Ansu Fati and Pablo Torre are two of the most likely 'discarded' players for the second half of the season.
