Andreas Christensen confirms plan to stay at Barcelona next season | OneFootball

Barcelona defender Andreas Christensen has no plans to leave the club this summer.

La Blaugrana are set for changes ahead of the 2024/25 season starting with the departure of head coach Xavi Hernandez in June.

Xavi’s replacement will have a transfer budget to work with in the coming months but the club are still looking to sell players.

Christensen had been linked with a possible departure from Catalonia, with interest from Germany and Italy, and a potential €40m price tag.

His current deal at Barcelona runs until 2026, and despite no firm update on a renewal, the Danish international is determined to stay.

“I have no doubt I will be here next season. I still have two years left on my contract and I’m happy”, as per an interview with TV3, via Marca.

Xavi moved Christensen into midfield during a recent injury crisis, and string of solid performances demonstrated his ability to rotate between roles under a new manager.

The 28-year-old will also be a key part of Kasper Hjulmand’s Denmark squad at Euro 2024 with the Danes in Group C alongside England, Slovenia and Serbia.
