Chelsea defender Christensen set for senior Denmark debut

Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen has been named in the Denmark squad by coach Morten Olsen.

Christensen made his first team debut for Chelsea this past season and is in the Denmark squad for Monday's game against Montenegro.

"We can only use Danes from abroad, if one can say so. Therefore, we have brought them all here. Christian Eriksen is coming back, and Kasper Schmeichel comes back.

"We take also Andreas Christensen, coming home from a trip (with Chelsea). We also take Lucas Andersen, who actually is currently only a reserve," Denmark coach Morten Olsen said.
