Barcelona President Joan Laporta has dropped a major hint regarding the future of Chelsea centre-back Andreas Christensen. The Danish defender is coming to the end of his contract at Stamford Bridge and is free to negotiate with foreign clubs.
With the ongoing turmoil regarding Roman Abramovich's ownership of the club, as things stand, the Blues are unable to negotiate new contracts with any of their current group of players. That means Christensen's departure is looking more and more likely ahead of the summer transfer window.
Barcelona have long been linked with a transfer and now Laporta has suggested that the Catalan giants have already completed deals to bring in two players - a midfielder and a centre-back. Although there is no confirmation from the Spaniard, it's largely presumed that AC Milan star Franck Kessie - who will be available on a free transfer - is indeed the midfielder, whilst Christensen may well be the defender in question.
