Former Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas believes Andreas Christensen is ‘too much of a good guy’ and needs to be ‘more of a bastard’.
The Denmark international has been at the London team since 2012 and has played 150 matches for the club during his time at Stamford Bridge.
The 25-year-old’s contract with Chelsea expires at the end of the campaign and the defender has been linked with a move to Barcelona this summer.

Fabregas concedes he was ‘surprised’ by Christensen’s quality when he first broke into Chelsea’s first team but believes he needs to show more aggression during games.
‘Christensen is being linked to Barca, and I can tell you he’s a great player,’ Fabregas said in an interview with Spanish journalist Gerard Romero on his Twitch show Jijantes.
‘He is fast, strong, great with the ball, agile, positions himself well. ‘When I first arrived at Chelsea, he was a youngster training with the first team, and I was already surprised.
‘The only thing that I would tell Christensen to try and improve on is that he’s too much of a good guy sometimes. He has to be more of a bastard, you know.

‘I see that in Eric [Garcia] too. They’re good guys, and you can’t be like that in football these days.’
