World Sports: Saudi Arabia is interested in Christensen, Barcelona doesn t mind selling people to make money

June 7, "World Sports" reported that the Saudi League is closely monitoring Barcelona defender Christensen.

29-year-old Christensen's contract with Barcelona will expire in 2026, and he is very likely to bid farewell to Camp Nou this summer. The Danish international has missed many games due to injury this season, but he still maintains market appeal in the Saudi professional league. Although no official offer has been received yet, Barcelona's senior executives have already smelled the news. Saudi Arabia is very interested in the central defender and will initiate a purchase in the summer.

Considering that the central defender and midfielder are saturated, Barcelona is happy to see the Danes leave the team. He joined the team without a sign-free franchise and received a high salary. If sold, it will bring net profit to the club. But at this stage, similar to most players' situation, Christensen has not expressed his willingness to leave the team. According to the club's internal judgment, the defender prefers to leave as free after fulfilling the contract. However, the World Cup year is approaching, and it remains to be seen whether he can stick to this position.
