Confirmed meeting, Andreas Christensen has already informed Barça: 'I'd like to...'

Andreas Christensen, strange as it may seem, is still on Barça's roster. Due to his constant physical issues, the Dane has only been able to participate in ten matches this season, almost all of them coming off the bench. He has only started and played the full 90 minutes on three occasions.

Given this scenario, considering that his contract ends on June 30, 2026, Andreas Christensen's time at Barça appears to be coming to an end. He isn't untouchable for Hansi Flick, and Joan Laporta isn't considering extending his contract right now. Everything points to a departure sooner rather than later if nothing changes.

Meeting requested and a statement that changes everything

Even so, the Dane has requested a meeting with the Barça board to clarify his sporting future. Andreas Christensen has told Deco and Joan Laporta that his intention is to stay at Barça beyond 2026. "I try to do what I can on the field, and I hope that's enough to keep me at Barça, I don't have a plan B," he stated with complete sincerity.

That statement has made an impact within the club. So much so that Laporta no longer rules out a one-year contract extension if the defender proves reliability. The meeting scheduled in the coming weeks will be decisive in clarifying his continuity.

Performance marked by injuries

The reality is that injuries have completely affected Andreas Christensen's time at Barça this season. His limited role, with barely any minutes and little continuity, has reduced his importance within the squad. Flick values his experience, but he needs regularity and physical solidity in his center-backs.

In addition, the competition for the position is very high. With Araújo as the defensive leader and young players like Pau Cubarsí or Eric García fighting for minutes, Christensen has fallen behind in the rotation. His physical problems haven't helped improve the situation.

Barça weighs scenarios and Christensen awaits a response

Barça is studying different scenarios to rebuild its defense for the coming seasons. Deco keeps the door open to continuity, but also considers a departure if the Dane's performance doesn't provide guarantees. The situation is under full internal analysis.

For Andreas Christensen, the meeting will be decisive. If he convinces the board with his commitment and shows that he can regain physical stability, he could extend his contract for one more year. Otherwise, the Dane's future looks far from Camp Nou, no matter how much he wants to stay at Barça.
