Barcelona Delays Andreas Christensen Contract Decision as Planning Continues

Barcelona is pausing to evaluate its 2026/27 backline.

Overview

  • The club has not opened renewal talks and intends to wait several months before deciding on the 29-year-old defender’s future.
  • His current contract runs until June 2026, giving Barcelona time to assess its options before committing to new terms.
  • Sporting leadership will consider his performances, potential market moves and a history of injuries before advancing negotiations.
  • Christensen has expressed a desire to stay and remains a rotation option for Hansi Flick after strong showings with Denmark.
  • Frenkie de Jong’s extension is effectively complete and discussions with Eric García are progressing, placing Christensen lower on the renewal agenda.
