Christensen Returns to Team Training with Barcelona
The Spanish newspaper 'Marca' reported that Danish defender Andreas Christensen has fully rejoined the training of the Barcelona team on Thursday morning, after a week filled with health fluctuations. The player had trained normally with the group on Monday, but on Tuesday he had to leave early due to worsening muscle pain, before returning today for team training.
The newspaper clarified that Christensen first suffered from intestinal inflammation that kept him out of the Olympiacos match, then he experienced some muscle pain that prevented him from participating against Real Madrid and Elche, and he also missed the Champions League match in the fourth round on Wednesday.
The report indicated that Christensen is experiencing a difficult start to the season similar to what he went through in 2024/2025, where he missed 51 matches, while he has participated in only 9 matches this season with a total of 338 minutes.
The newspaper added that Barcelona conducted training on Thursday morning after their draw against Club Brugge, where the substitute players trained alongside Christensen, while the main players remained inside the training facility to follow their recovery programs.
