After Ronald Araújo reportedly decided to remain at Barcelona this January, it has opened the door for some players to potentially leave this month.

Eric Garcia is attracting interest from La Liga clubs, including Girona who the Spaniard was on loan with last season.

However, according to Sport, it could be Andreas Christensen, who has just recovered from a long-term injury, who departs.

The Danish centre-back is arguably Hansi Flick’s last option in defence, but with injuries he might see himself play some minutes this year. 

Due to this lack of promised game time, Barcelona are open to ‘extraordinary offers’ either during this transfer window or the next.

The report states that many English clubs are interested in the former Chelsea player but that Manchester United, who were linked with last summer, have ‘made contract’ with the Denmark international. 

Even though Christensen has a £430million release clause, with his contract ending in 2026, Barça would consider much less. 

However, it is reported that Flick is very happy with his current squad and confirmed that the 28-year-old would be returning from his five-month injury against Getafe this weekend.

One option that could be explored is a potential swap deal, as the Blaugrana are currently interested in signing Marcus Rashford from Man United to reinforce their attack for the remainder of the season.
