Barcelona have agreed deals to sign Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen and AC Milan midfielder Franck Kessie on free transfers when their contracts expire in June, says Guillem Balague.

The Spanish club are also in talks with Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta over a free transfer this summer.

Club president Joan Laporta confirmed Barca had signed two players, but would not name them.

"We've completed two signings for the next season," he said.

Speaking to Catalan radio station Rac1, Laporta added: "One is a midfielder, the other one is a centre-back. But I'm not allowed to mention their names.
