Matteo Moretto Announces Departure Prepared by Laporta: Surprise at Barça - Confirmed

The renowned Italian journalist gave us a surprise: ruled out by Joan Laporta, he will leave Barça. The mystery is when.

Matteo Moretto has surprised us with his latest news related to Barça. In an article written in 'Relevo', the journalist specialising in mercatto has discovered that Andreas Christensen will not continue wearing the culer jersey. Currently injured, he is not part of Laporta's plans and is on the way out, with the question of when his farewell will take place: in January or June.

Andreas Christensen is under contract with Barcelona until June 2026 and the intention is to make money from his sale. He arrived on a free transfer in 2022 and, three years later, the idea at Barça is to sell him and get rid of him permanently . Valued at 30 million euros, many Premier League teams are closely monitoring any kind of news regarding the 28-year-old Dane.

In this sense, it seems that Christensen would be willing to leave if the offer is good . At the moment, he continues to recover from an injury that has prevented him from making his debut this season. We will have to see in what condition he returns and how much money Barça can get for a player whose contract ends in 2026. In any case, everything that is earned will be profit for the club as he arrived completely free.

Andreas Christensen, the Great Victim of the State of Íñigo Martínez

Matteo Moretto hasn't been left alone here. If Andreas Christensen is to leave, Laporta's idea is to renew Íñigo Martínez 's contract . This ends on June 30, 2025 and, although there's an automatic renewal clause until 2026, the plan is to negotiate directly with the Basque central defender.

The great form of Íñigo Martínez has finally put the nail in the coffin for Christensen, who has been hampered by his long-term injury. Barça hope to get a good sum from the sale of the Dane, a highly respected center-back in Europe, with a lot of experience and a high level.

In the last few days, Íñigo's representative was present at the Ciutat Esportiva of Barça and there was talk of his possible renewal. Both parties want to remain linked and hope to reach an agreement as soon as possible. This will mean that Andreas Christensen's departure will be closer than ever, with Laporta preparing to part ways with the Danish defender.
