Christensen set for Barca switch

Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen has agreed personal terms with Barcelona ahead of a free transfer.



The Denmark international has just four months remaining on his Blues contract, and he is free to negotiate with an overseas club.

It is well known that Barcelona are leading the race to land his signature, and Fabrizio Romano now claims that the deal is almost done.

Christensen has agreed terms over a four-year deal, and he could formally put pen-to-paper on a pre-contract over the next few days.

The centre-back has been a key player at the heart of the Blues defence this term, but the club have been unable to convince him to stay.

Christensen was initially open to signing a renewal, but made a U-turn after learning of Barcelona's interest. They previously wanted him on loan.

The Dane is a central defender by trade, but he can play as a holding midfielder or on the right side of the backline if required.
