15 - Andreas Christensen

[FinBarcelonafan]

Exactly. A good player but injuries are a big concern. I would wait before making a contract offer.

 

[DonAK]

We have the whole season to see if he fixed his injuries or not. If he didn't then just don't offer him a renewal.

It's not like Deco is able to get a big transfer fee for him this summer.

Yes, but selling him releases a considerable salary margin.

Besides the club do not want any player to run down their contracts.

At a reduced wage perhaps would be ideal because when he is on the pitch, he performs very well

Easy to fix with a performance and availability based contract.

We will never get a similar level quality defender for the salary margin that he would make. They are not capable of selling him so that's not an option anyway.

We’ll see what happens I guess.

The dream remains signing a top CB next summer with Christensen’s situation, Inigo’s age and Araujo’s inconsistency.

 

[TheStig]

"Dream" being the key word, I think we'll only be dreaming about signing a top CB anytime soon. We'll also have to buy a ST and LW at least and it looks like it'll be free agents and cheap options next summer also.

Our best hope for now is Cubarsi Christensen duo.

 

[draconifire]

Dont need renewal or anything.

Just try to fix him like we did with Pedri, hope he stays fit this season.

And if, at the end of the season, he is really fit, he gets his 2-year extension, like Inigo.
It would be up to him if he wants to stay or leave. No hard feelings. I am sure, if we offer a contract extension, he would take it happily.

Once we return to Camp Nou we won't have any issues with registrations anymore.

Obviously that leads to another question....when will we return?

But leaving that, there's two CBs who would improve us considerably IMO and be both a short-term and long-term solution. Konate whose contract runs out in 2026 with RM after him and Saliba whose contract runs out in 2027 and is yet to renew as well.

We need to start positioning ourselves for one of these two.

 

[Loki]

If he stays injury free, he'll compete for the starting spot next to Cubarsi. But that's a big if.

 

[FCMessi]

Christensen with a Koundesque blast banger vs FC Seoul

 

[Titan98]

You mean next to araujo

 

[draconifire]

2 games and no injury. Is this a record?

Damn, Flicks be cooking with dem horse meat.

 

[Barcaman]

Been saying he's the best CB. Will be proved right

 

[serghei]

Of course he is. Man already won the title the club is pursuing. His problems are his chronic injuries.
