Christensen has agreed a deal to join Barca when his Chelsea contract expires at the end of June, according to wide-ranging reports. Tuchel is unsure if the academy graduate has played his final game for the club.
Explaining the situation, the German coach said: “Andreas came in the morning of the match to speak to me and tell me that he’s not ready to play the match, not to start or be on the bench. He had his reasons, they stay private and confidential.
“But it was not the first time as you can see over the last weeks that we had some of the same situations. That’s why he did not play so regularly in the last times.”
Tuchel added: “We thought we were in a good progression and development, but the conversation took place, we had to respect it and we of course respected it. It was very short notice now before the cup final, and not only this match, other matches in the other weeks. There’s no chance I have any prediction for tomorrow or the weekend.”
