In a statement, the club said: “At 1.88m, Christensen is a powerful centre-back who is excellent in the air. Technically proficient with the ball at his feet also, he is a perfect fit for the Blaugrana back four.”

Christensen is the second signing announced by Barça ahead of the new season, after the La Liga club confirmed the arrival of midfielder Franck Kessié earlier today. Kessié also arrives as a free agent from Serie A champions AC Milan.

He became a key player at Stamford Bridge, playing 160 times for the club and scoring two goals. The Dane leaves Chelsea after a decade.
