Barcelona have reportedly contacted Chelsea about a potential transfer swoop for young defender Andreas Christensen.
The Denmark international has not been a regular for the Blues since Maurizio Sarri replaced Antonio Conte as manager, but has long been rated as a top talent for the future.

According to Sport, Christensen is now being eyed as a possible target for Barcelona if Samuel Umtiti’s injury proves serious and keeps him out long-term.
Still, the report suggests Chelsea are not keen on letting the 22-year-old go in the middle of the season.
CFC could do with all the backup options and squad depth they can get over the course of this long season in which they’ll hope to break back into the top four and even challenge for the Premier League title.
