Newcastle does not neglect its options of signing one of Barcelona's great defenders

Andreas Christensen continues to be a highly sought-after asset in the Premier League, where he already had a successful experience with Chelsea, establishing himself as one of their key players from the 2016-17 season until his departure in 2022-23. Given this, and considering his performance at Barcelona, it would not be surprising if several teams in the British league are interested in his services, especially considering that Barcelona seems willing to sell him in the upcoming transfer windows.

In this regard, one of the clubs that has shown interest once again in acquiring Andreas Christensen is Newcastle United, a team that in the past expressed interest in knowing the situation of the Danish defender. According to the website 'Fichajes.net', the 'Magpies' have identified him as one of their priorities for the upcoming summer transfer window.

Reasons supporting Andreas Christensen's signing by Newcastle

Considering that Barcelona could try to obtain between 20 and 30 million euros for a player who is not considered indispensable in their squad and whose contract expires in 2026, they could be considering listening to the transfer offer from Newcastle United, which is looking to strengthen their defense with a top-notch asset with notable technical quality, experience in elite football, and in international competitions with his national team.

At 28 years old, Christensen would be a good option to rejuvenate a defensive line where most players are over thirty years old, such as Jamaal Lascelles (31), Dan Burn (32), and Fabian Schär (32), along with younger names like Sven Botman (24) and Lloyd Kelly (26). Additionally, Andreas could also be an interesting choice to reinforce the midfield as a pivot.

The amount that the 'Magpies' would be willing to offer for the Danish defender

Now, it remains to be seen what offer Newcastle United presents for Christensen. According to reports from 'El Nacional.cat', the 'Magpies' proposal would be around 15 million euros. Will Barcelona accept it? For now, it doesn't seem entirely clear, as this figure is below what was mentioned earlier.

However, it could be considered by the Catalan sports management, as it would represent a profit for a defender who joined the club as a free agent in 2022, providing a significant economic boost to solve certain financial issues of the club and free up space in the salary structure.
