At FC Barcelona, it's no longer about an injury but an indefinite absence. Hansi Flick has asked for explanations from the player and the medical staff on several occasions. But at this point, the situation has gone beyond the sports realm.
The German coach considers the lack of involvement to be concerning. He's not the only one. Within the club, they no longer understand why he continues to occupy a spot and salary without contributing anything to the team.
The Locker Room Is Fed Up and the Atmosphere Has Broken
In the locker room, the exhaustion is total. Most of the players have commented internally that they don't understand his attitude. Even those who maintained a close relationship with him have stopped defending him.
Pedri, who was always a calm voice in the group, no longer wants to see him at the Ciutat Esportiva. Some young players like Fermín or Lamine have also expressed annoyance with the difference in treatment. The general feeling is that it's a lost cause.
Hansi Flick has been clear with the management. If the player isn't in condition to compete at the highest level, he won't continue. The coach doesn't accept half measures, especially in a squad that urgently needs rotation.
In private, the German has asked for an exit to be found before the summer. He doesn't want the issue to drag on for another year. Neither on nor off the field is there confidence in his return.
Laporta and Deco Want to Finalize His Exit as Soon as Possible
The sports management is aligned with the coaching staff. Joan Laporta has already given the green light for offers to be heard. Deco is working with his agent to find a destination in the coming weeks.
The club believes they could earn between 15 and 20 million with his transfer. Although the priority isn't so much to raise funds as to free up his high salary. In times of economic hardship, every euro counts.
His Medical History and Lack of Communication, Key in the Decision
The player has spent more time in the infirmary than on the field since he arrived. This season has been especially alarming. He hasn't played a single official match in 2025.
Moreover, he has avoided making statements and hasn't accompanied the team even in important moments. This has set off all the alarms in the club. Patience has run out.
The player in question is none other than Andreas Christensen. The Danish center-back has completely disappeared this season. Neither Flick, nor Pedri, nor anyone in the group wants to keep waiting for him.
The club is clear that his time is over. His initial performance was positive, but his continuity has been a constant problem. This summer, barring an unexpected turn, he will be transferred.
