Saudi Interest in Barcelona Defender
Spanish media reports have revealed that Saudi Pro League clubs are prioritizing Danish defender Andreas Christensen during the summer transfer window, amid predictions of his imminent departure from Barcelona.
Christensen, who is 29 years old, is under contract with Barcelona until 2026; however, his current season has been significantly affected by injuries, which has limited his appearances with the team.
Despite this, he is still highly regarded within the Saudi Pro League, which has prompted Barcelona's management to keep an eye on the situation, especially with increasing indications of official offers on the horizon.
Barcelona has an abundance of players in the center-back and defensive midfielder positions, both of which Christensen excels in, making the club open to the idea of selling him, particularly since he joined for free and earns a high salary. Therefore, any sale would provide full financial benefit to the club.
On the other hand, Christensen has not yet shown a clear desire to leave and prefers to see out his contract until the end, allowing him to become a free agent again. With the World Cup approaching, the Danish player's future remains uncertain, pending developments in the coming weeks.
