Andreas Christensen is still not in Hansi Flick's plans, as this season he has played a whopping single match. His situation has become even more complicated with injuries, which have limited his ability to show his level. Christensen knows that a quick recovery will be key to finding minutes away from Barça.
As the season progresses, his future seems increasingly distant from Camp Nou. At 28 years old, he needs a project where he can play regularly and regain his best version. Of course, this is not happening at Barça, so seeking an exit is the best for Christensen.
An increasingly likely exit
Barça has taken note of Christensen's situation and no longer rules out his departure in this winter market. The lack of opportunities and his physical problems have led the management to seriously consider a possible sale. The market remains open and there is interest in Christensen. In the coming days, the details of his possible exit are expected to be defined.
The Premier: the destination that sounds strong
The main party interested in acquiring Christensen's services is a Premier League team. Their interest is no coincidence, as the defender left a very good impression during his time in England.
This team, which is fighting for European positions, has seen in Christensen a market opportunity. The offer they have put forward has made Barça willing to negotiate.
Newcastle continues with an ambitious project
Newcastle has been the first one to take the step and has submitted an offer to sign Andreas Christensen. The English have offered 15 million euros ($16.2 million) and Barça views the operation favorably.
For Christensen, returning to the Premier would be a great opportunity after his time at Chelsea. With Newcastle in full evolution and fighting at the top of the standings, the sporting challenge is very attractive.
Christensen's transfer could be finalized soon
Everything indicates that Andreas Christensen's exit is a matter of time and could be finalized in the coming days. Christensen needs stability and continuity to show his best level.
If the operation is completed, Newcastle will strengthen with an experienced defender and Barça will free up space in their locker room. Both parties seem willing to reach an agreement that benefits everyone.
