New reports suggest that Newcastle United is exploring the possibility of adding Barcelona’s Andreas Christensen to their defensive lineup.
Caught Offside has stated that the Premier League club has initiated contact with Barcelona to discuss potential terms for the sale of the Danish center-back.
Newcastle is actively on the lookout for a new defender and has made Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi their top priority. However, as negotiations for Guehi’s transfer have hit a roadblock, the club is now considering alternative options.
As a former Chelsea player, Christensen has now emerged as a viable substitute.
Newcastle has made inquiries about the potential expenses associated with securing Christensen’s services and whether Barcelona would be willing to negotiate their current asking price, which stands at approximately €40 million.
