Barcelona move official Christensen has signed a four-year contract with Barcelona after leaving Chelsea, the club announced Monday.

Impact Christensen spent 10 years at Chelsea -- although he was sent on-loan for two seasons with Borussia Monchengladbach -- since joining the academy in 2012, but the 26-year-old is now moving on as a free agent. He could plug immediately into the starting lineup at Barcelona if Gerard Pique's injury issues from last season continue, as he will likely be competing with Eric Garcia for the other center-back spot alongside Ronald Araujo.

Out against Watford Christensen (undisclosed) was not involved in Sunday's 2-1 victory against Watford.

Impact There was a bit of mystery surrounding Christensen's absences near the end of the season, but the 26-year-old kept nine clean sheets in 19 Premier League appearances (17 starts) this campaign, as well as four clean sheets in eight games in the Champions League. But since he is heavily linked with a move away from Chelsea in the summer, Trevoh Chalobah was more of a preferred option in the back-three down the stretch.

Impact There's been no information on a possible issue, something that happened earlier in the season with Christensen, so there's a good chance he doesn't play again. Christensen doesn't seem likely to remain with the team even with 17 league starts this campaign and even if healthy, there's a chance he won't play in the final couple games.

Back in squad Christensen (undisclosed) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Wolves.

Impact Christensen missed the prior three matches with an unknown issue, but he's back in squad Saturday and ready to compete for minutes. He figures to get a start in an upcoming contest with a busy schedule ahead, though he's struggled in recent matches.

MAY 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Status unknown for Wolves Christensen (undisclosed) remains a doubt for Saturday's match against Wolves after not being mentioned by manager Thomas Tuchel.

Impact Christensen has missed the last three matches after being taken off at the break of the home loss against Arsenal. It's unknown if this is injury related or if he's simply being benched for a poor performance. No matter, he's not needed at the moment and there's a chance he doesn't appear again this season.

Impact Christensen was removed from the starting XI against West Ham United on Sunday at the last minute, so it appears whatever is bothering the defender is relatively minor. Still, with Antonio Rudiger (groin) and Reece James (undisclosed) also close to returning, it's not immediately clear who might fill the central defensive roles, especially considering Christensen was an unused substitute in two of the club's last five contests and was subbed off at halftime in two of those appearances.
