Andreas Christensen has broken his silence on his Chelsea exit this summer as he prepares to join Barcelona on a free transfer.

The Denmark international will see his contract expire at Stamford Bridge at the end of the month while the club will lose the defender.

The 26-year-old has spent 10 years in west London and came up through the academy. His departure will come as a major blow to Thomas Tuchel, who was already looking to sign a defender before the news broke that Christensen would leave.

However, the former Borussia Monchengladbach loanee has told his side of the story in an emotional post to fans. “I had a tough decision to make at the age of 16 to leave Denmark,” Christensen said in a statement. “I met many different clubs but there was only ever one choice for me and that was Chelsea. "From the moment I arrived they made me feel at home, I’m grateful to Jim Fraser and Neil Bath who immediately embraced me as part of their family.
