It seems almost certain that this season will be Andreas Christensen's last as a Barcelona player. Having been out of action since August after undergoing surgery on an Achilles tendon injury, the Danish defender has fallen out of first-team prominence, and with plans for a new centre-back to be signed next summer, it is expected to be. that of making way.
Christensen is still counted on for this season, although he will not be able to play until 2025. Barcelona had hoped to have him back in December, but according to Catalunya Radio (via Sport), the 28-year-old was forced to undergo a second surgery.
Once the surgery is over, Christensen will undergo “cellular regenerative therapy” on both of his Achilles tendons, which Barcelona hope will allow him to fully recover from the niggling problem.
Barcelona Head coach Hansi Flick will be desperate to get Christensen back as soon as possible, although he will have to wait at least another two months to have him back at his disposal.
