Serie A Giants Eye Late Move for Barcelona Defender
Barcelona Negotiating Salary Limit for Player Registrations
Barcelona is facing challenges with their salary limit as they navigate player registrations and potential transfers. Following Chelsea’s interest in Fermin Lopez, defender Andreas Christensen may be the next player in the spotlight.
Christensen has only a year left on his contract with Barcelona and has shown reluctance to leave the club despite speculation. The departure of Inigo Martinez on a free transfer earlier in the transfer window was a strategic move to alleviate the club’s salary limit concerns.
AC Milan Eyeing Andreas Christensen
AC Milan is reportedly considering making a late move for Andreas Christensen, as reported by Pietro Balzano via Sport. Despite his injury history, Christensen’s performance level remains high, making him an attractive and cost-effective option for Milan’s defense.
Barcelona’s Position on Christensen’s Potential Transfer
It remains uncertain whether Barcelona would be open to negotiating with AC Milan for Christensen. While the club has a roster of five central defenders, including Eric Garcia, Jules Kounde, Pau Cubarsi, and Ronald Araujo, recent changes in positions and player adaptations suggest that Christensen’s departure may not be on the cards.
Marc Casadó knows, and he has explained this to his entourage, that this season it will be difficult for him to get minutes. But from his entourage they assure that, if there is the slightest chance to play, his will will always be to continue at Barça. @jordicardero

Manager Hansi Flick has expressed his reluctance to lose more players, echoing sentiments regarding Fermin and Marc Casado. However, club policies, led by Director of Football Deco, prioritize avoiding players entering the final year of their contracts without renewal or potential sale. Christensen falls into this category, raising questions about his future at Barcelona.
