Whilst on International duty confirmed that plans are in place for him to at least start the pre-season at Chelsea.
“I will join up with Chelsea on July 7th. I haven’t talked to Conte yet. I have talked to the sporting director and all those responsible for getting the players set up with a flat and what else belongs to them. The sports director says the plan is that I meet like all the others and go through the preseason,"
With Virgil van Dijk unlikely to sign now, one cannot help but think that Christensen will at least be considered as an option to fill the void after Terry's departure.
We could possibly see one academy player replacing another.
Also, he has the experience of playing in a 3 man back line which will help
Exciting times ahead.
Christensen

David Luiz, Gary Cahill, Cesar, Zouma and Ake. I think we are fully stocked at CB especially with Christensen. Azipi is amazing, like god level and Zouma is the rising star both must stay. We need cover for Moses and Alonso more than a CB. Azipi can do a job but aside from him we don't have anyone decent to cover Alonso or Moses.

Ake is going to be a very good player if he isn't already but I don't rate Zouma. Think we'd be better off moving him on.

Sterling for Moses and Castillo for Alonso!
Sterling looks a real talent.

If he's going to replace anyone in the back 3 I would expect it to be Azpilicuetta, with Azpilicuetta moving forward to the Right wing back position.

That would be an absolute waste and V poor decision IMO!
Been a rock in the back three and not a natural wing back - why would anyone possible go with that, except in an emergency?
You would weaken one of the strongest links of the back three and not improve the WB situation!

Unfortunately Zouma is not suitable to play with three at the back. In those sub appearances he's had to come on, Conte switched to back four.
