‘Perfect fit for us: as Xavi tells club to sign £80,000 a-week Chelsea player
Chelsea defender Christensen will be out of contract at Stamford Bridge this summer after failing to reach an agreement with Chelsea over a contract renewal.
However, this has left several clubs to chase the defender after failing to agree deal Chelsea.
Meanwhile, according to Caughtoffside, Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez has asked the Spanish side to sign Chelsea centre-back Andreas Christensen.
Xavi reportedly believes Christensen will be a perfect fit for Barcelona’s style of play.
Barcelona reportedly believe signing a player like Christensen as a free agent will be a smart piece of business for the Catalan giants.
Chelsea could lose as many as three centre-backs at the end of the season with the contracts of Antonio Rudiger and Cesar Azpilicueta also expiring at the end of the season.
Azpilicueta has also been linked with a move to Barcelona while Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have been linked with moves for Rudiger.
