El Nacional newspaper said that Barcelona has named the first to leave the team next summer and said that he will not remain despite his brilliance with the team and Xavi’s admiration for his abilities.
Barcelona will need to make a major sale next summer, to bring itself into line with the league’s Financial Fair Play rules, and will also need to raise the funds necessary to keep Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix, as Xavi Hernandez has already requested.
The player named as the first to leave for these purposes is Andreas Christensen, who has excellent offers from England after an impressive season last year at Barcelona.
Strange decision
This decision is considered one of the strangest decisions that Barcelona may make in the next Mercato, because Christensen came at no cost in a free transfer and he was only 26 years old, meaning that he represents a good investment for the future, in addition to the fact that he had a more than excellent season under Xavi’s leadership and did not object to him sitting on the benches. Substitutes this season.
Substitutes are not at half his level
According to El Nacional, Barcelona believes that Jules Kounde and Araujo are the team’s future centre-backs and that a player of Christensen’s market value would be an excellent investment instead of putting him on the bench.
The same newspaper confirms that Barcelona is impressed by the brilliance of Eric Garcia, who is loaned to Girona, and believes that he and Inigo Martinez will be the appropriate replacement for Christensen in the event of his departure.
