Due to the number of centre-backs in the squad, Deco<\/strong> expressed the need to sell a centre-back before the start of pre-season. Although all eyes were on Andreas Christensen<\/strong>, the Dane stated that he did not want to leave FC Barcelona<\/strong>. On the Asian tour he scored a great goal against FC Seoul<\/a> and asks for more opportunities.<\/p> The Danish centre-back was not spared from injuries last season. First it was tendinopathy in the left Achilles tendon<\/strong>, which caused him to miss the first half of the season, and then an injury to the soleus of his right leg in March<\/strong>.<\/p> Now, fully recovered, he hopes to have more participation in 25\/26, remembering that he only played 6 games in 24\/25. I\u00f1igo Mart\u00ednez<\/strong>, who was one of the starting centre-backs for Hansi Flick, will now play for Al-Nassr, where he will be a teammate of Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Man\u00e9.<\/p> The departure of the Basque centre-back, however, helps to free up salary mass<\/strong>, although it is still a sensitive blow for the team. In this sense, the German coach, with one less piece in defence, will turn to the Danish centre-back as an alternative for a defence that, in the pre-season, conceded 4 goals in 3 matches.<\/p> Christensen’s contract expires in 2026<\/strong>. For the sports management of the blaugrana club it is not good to have players in their squad whose contract expires in one year. I\u00f1igo’s departure has changed the club’s plans<\/strong> and they have considered offering the Dane a renewal so that he does not leave with a letter of freedom once the season is over.<\/p> According to information from ‘SPORT’, there is no rush in the negotiations<\/strong>, which could begin once the summer transfer market is over. What is almost a fact is that the Lillerod native will continue to be a cul\u00e9 in 25\/26.<\/p> Change of plans at Bar\u00e7a: Christensen could renew soon<\/h2>
