Xavi risks grimacing, Barça will lose a defender

While Xavi asked for reinforcements, Barça could instead weaken during this winter transfer window.

FC Barcelona risks recording a loss in its defense during this month of January. Andreas Christensen is likely to change his tune in the coming days.

One less center back for Barça?

The Danish international is strongly tipped to return to England. According to the daily Sport, the former Chelsea player is of interest to at least two major Premier League clubs. Manchester United and Newcastle United are said to be hot on his trail.

Christensen is in his third season with Barça, but he lost his starting status with the Blaugrana. Helmed in particular by Jules Koundé and Ronald Araujo.

It would still be surprising to see Barcelona part with this element mid-season. A transfer next summer seems more plausible for the Scandinavian. To be continued.
