Barcelona are reportedly monitoring the progress of Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen with a view to a possible future move.

According to Tom Hopkinson of the Sunday Mirror, the Blaugrana have been impressed with the Danish international, who has cemented his position in the Chelsea side with a string of excellent performances.

"Barcelona are long-term admirers and have been keeping tabs on his progress ever since he stepped in to replace David Luiz," noted Hopkinson.

Hopkinson suggested that, with two-and-a-half years to run on his contract at Stamford Bridge, the Premier League champions want to extend Christensen's contract in order to prevent interest from other clubs.
