The 'big' of the Premier who would have in mind trying to sign Andreas Christensen in January

As has been happening lately, it is common for the name of Andreas Christensen, despite his outstanding performance either as a defender or midfielder, to be the subject of various rumors about a possible departure from FC Barcelona through a sale. On this occasion, it has not been an exception, and once again the Danish player is amidst speculations pointing to his departure from the culé team during the upcoming winter market.

According to 'El Nacional.cat', it is rumored that one of the big clubs in Europe is interested in the services of the Lillerød native defender. Specifically, the mentioned source suggests that Manchester United, now under the guidance of Portuguese coach Rúben Amorim, is preparing an offer for Andreas Christensen to take him away this January.

It is said that Manchester United would be willing to offer around €15 million for Andreas Christensen, an amount that may be below his market value, estimated at 30 million euros, according to 'Transfermarkt'. Despite this, it is highlighted that Barcelona would be open to considering the proposal and might even make a counteroffer more in line with the worth of a player of Christensen's caliber.

Barcelona Might Not Frown Upon the Sale of Andreas Christensen

At this point, Barcelona might be receptive to listening to offers for Andreas Christensen, who is currently recovering from tendinopathy in his left Achilles. This is partly because the culé team has clear priorities in defense, relying on Pau Cubarsí and Iñigo Martínez as a solid and unmovable central defensive pair, in addition to the expected prompt return of Ronald Araújo by mid-November. This situation could imply that the Dane may have few playing opportunities, despite his 'status' justifying a place in the starting eleven.

Furthermore, Andreas Christensen could also play as a midfielder, but Barcelona has a considerable number of players in that position. Considering the club's current style of play, with Marc Casadó and Pedri González as a well-established double pivot, and with options like Gavi and Frenkie de Jong as valuable alternatives, it would not be surprising if the Dane also does not enjoy much playing time in that area of the field. Therefore, he might view a move to a 'top' team in a league he is familiar with, like the Premier League, where he had a successful spell with Chelsea, with favor.
