Christensen not happy with Chelsea bench duty as he mulls over possible move

The Denmark international defender has struggled for game time this season and sparked transfer talk ahead of the January window

Andreas Christensen admits he is not happy with a lack of minutes at Chelsea, with an unfortunate situation forcing him to consider a move elsewhere.

The 22-year-old enjoyed a breakthrough campaign at Stamford Bridge in 2017-18 as he figured 40 times under Antonio Conte.

A change in the dugout has dropped him down the pecking order, though, with Maurizio Sarri favouring David Luiz and Antonio Rudiger as his centre-half options.

Christensen has been restricted to six outings as a result, and is still waiting on his first Premier League action of the current campaign.
