Out for Clasico
Christensen (knee) was not included in the squad for Sunday's Clasico against Real Madrid, according to the club.
Analysis: Christensen's omission from the squad confirms that Barcelona opted against taking any risks with the Danish center-back despite him having returned to team training over the past 10 days. The partial ACL tear has required a careful management approach throughout his recovery, and the club ultimately decided the Clasico came too soon for him to feature. His future at the club also remains uncertain heading into the summer, with Barcelona having offered him a reduced contract renewal ahead of the transfer window.
Racing to be fit for Clasico
Christensen (knee) has been training with the group since 10 days and could be an option for Sunday's Clasico against Real Madrid, though his availability remains doubtful, according to Barca Universal.
Analysis: Christensen had been left out of the Osasuna squad despite returning to team training, with Barcelona taking a cautious approach given the nature of his partial ACL tear. The Danish center-back is racing against time to be ready for one of the biggest fixtures of the season, but the club will not take any unnecessary risks with his long-term health even if he manages to earn a place on the bench for the Clasico. His future at the club also remains uncertain, with Barcelona having offered him a reduced contract renewal ahead of the summer.
