Barcelona have stumbled upon one of the best signings they made last summer with Andreas Christensen. His performances have meant the 'Cules' have told him that he is 'un-transferable' and that they'll be looking to protect him from other sides, as well as improving his contract which ends in June 2026.

Andreas Christensen has been a nice surprise since he arrived at Barcelona. The Danish centre-back went to the Spanish giants from Chelsea on a free, and his performances were immediate, even when he's been playing at left-back together with Araujo.

According to 'Mundo Deportivo', the Spanish side have told the player that he is 'un-transferable' and untouchable ahead of the upcoming transfer window. What's more, the source reported that they'll be looking to keep him there and improve his contract which ends in June 2026.

Despite Barca needing to save money this summer to be able to have the wage bill under control to be able to make more signings, no red lines will be crossed in terms of departure, including with the ex-Chelsea man. The club are certain they want to keep him next season.

Joan Laporta already made it clear that he wasn't going to let anyone come near players that they consider to be starters, like the Dane, even is the current financial situation is not at its best.
