Andreas Christensen to depart from Chelsea 'hopefully soon' despite Barcelona financial warning

Andreas Christensen will soon no longer be a Chelsea player. After weeks of back and forth with his contract demands, the Denmark international had decided to separate from the Blues and pursue a new challenge in Barcelona. His contract will expire at the end of this month, but unlike Antonio Rudiger, things are not yet set in stone for the Chelsea defender.
