I’m sure like all other Chelsea fans now, I am getting absolutely sick of the defender contract situations at the club.
Some conclusions are needed now either way, even if that means our four current centre backs who will be out of contract in the summer have decided to leave. We must either get these tied up or move on now, it’s a situation that is constantly hanging over the head of Thomas Tuchel and the players.

Thiago Silva at least seems destined to stay, but players like Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger seem to be continuously flirting with other clubs and stalling on Chelsea offers, especially Christensen who has reportedly been close twice now to signing on the dotted line with Chelsea.
However, according to a report from Spanish publication Sport, Christensen has been in negotiations with Barcelona for ‘months’ now and he has stalled on Chelsea because he is waiting on the Spanish giants to come in with their offer, and if they don’t, he will accept Chelsea’s offer on the table.
