Today, Sunday, Christensen joined Barcelona’s training and participated in all activities required by coach Hansi Flick, signaling that he is close to making his return to match action, according to “Mundo Deportivo.”
Manchester United Targeting Barcelona Star Christensen
While Christensen is expected to rejoin Barcelona’s squad in the second half of the season, reports from the UK suggest that Manchester United may want to sign him in the upcoming winter transfer window.
The English club is looking to strengthen its defense and improve results under Portuguese coach Ruben Amorim. British platform “Cote Offside” reports that United has already started taking steps to sign Christensen.
Christensen joined Barcelona from Chelsea in the summer of 2022 on a free transfer. So far, he has played 75 matches for Barcelona, scoring 4 goals and providing 3 assists, according to “Transfer Market.”
