‘Deal to be completed next week! Fabrizio confirms player’s transfer after Abramovich confirms Chelsea sale
On Wednesday, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich confirmed that he is set to sell the club he bought in 2003 and transformed into one of the biggest in the world.
However, following this announcement, reliable transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Chelsea centre-back Andreas Christensen is set to hold transfer talks with Spanish side Barcelona next week just days after Abramovich revealed he is selling Chelsea.
Romano said; “Andreas Christensen has turned down proposals from English clubs to be respectful with Chelsea. He’s now really close to join Barcelona as free agent, contract proposal’s better than Bayern one.
“Final details missing – new meeting expected next week to complete the deal.”
Christensen will be out of contract at the end of the season and now looks set to join Barcelona as a free agent.
