AC Milan has identified Andreas Christensen as a priority option to reinforce their defense for the upcoming season. In the midst of a situation where FC Barcelona needs to lighten their squad, the Danish center-back emerges as an attractive alternative for the rossonero team, seeking experience and reliability in defense.
Barça, pressured by the need to reduce their center-back roster, sees the former Chelsea player as the main candidate to leave, especially after a season where injuries limited his participation. He could barely play six official matches, a stark contrast to the emergence of players like Pau Cubarsí or Iñigo Martínez. Hansi Flick has already shown in his planning that he has other priorities for the center of the defense, putting the Nordic player on the exit ramp.
AC Milan wants to sign Andreas Christensen
San Siro is closely monitoring the situation. AC Milan, aiming to make a competitive leap in Europe and challenge Serie A with more consistency, values Christensen for his international experience, leadership in the defensive line, and good ball distribution. The fact that his contract expires in 2026 but with a contractual situation pressured by the Catalan club could make a deal affordable for the Italians.
Although the player doesn't seem in a hurry to leave, his lack of playing time and the growing interest from Italy could make him reconsider his future. On the other hand, Barça sees his departure as an opportunity to reduce the wage bill without compromising the sporting structure. The next few weeks will be crucial to see if the Dane ends up packing his bags for Milan.
