Barcelona are reported to have held contract talks with centre-back Andreas Christensen, who is attracting interest from a number of Premier League sides.

Christensen is approaching the final 18 months of his contract and has been touted as a potential asset for sale as Barcelona look to raise money, piquing the interest of Manchester United, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur.

SPORT, however, state Christensen is not interested in listing to approaches from England and is instead hoping to extend his stay with Barcelona.

It is noted that talks have been held between Barcelona and Christensen's representatives with a view to thrashing out an agreement over fresh terms.

Much of the uncertainty surrounding Christensen's future stemmed from Barcelona's decision to unregister the defender, who is sidelined with an injury, from their squad in favour of summer signing Dani Olmo.

Club officials have privately and publicly reassured Christensen that his future at the club is not in danger, stressing their plan to re-register the former Chelsea defender once the window reopens in January.

However, should an extension fail to be agreed, Christensen could find himself forced to entertain offers, with Barcelona reluctant to avoid losing any player on a free transfer.
