On Friday, news broke that Andreas Christensen is set to be out of action for next two months. The Danish defender had been absent from group training over the last couple of days, and Barcelona’s worst fears were confirmed during medical tests.
The club has now revealed the nature of Christensen’s injury. As per an official report, the 28-year-old is suffering with tendinopathy in his left achilles. They state that his return will be determined by how he recovers, but the expectation is that he will not return before the end of October.

During pre-season, it was noted that Christensen had been suffering with tendonitis. It appears that the issue has gradually got worse, and this is the result. It’s the last thing that Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick needs, as he was already without Ronald Araujo for the next four months after he suffered a serious hamstring injury during the Copa America earlier this summer.
