The duo are set to become Barca's first first signing of the summer, with manager Xavi Hernandez keen to bolster his squad ahead of the season.
Christensen will content with the likes of Gerard pique, Ronald Araujo and Eric Garcia for starting berth in the center of Barcelona's defense.
He was a key member of the chelsea team Under Thomas Tuchel, with the Dane shining in a five-man defensive system at stamford Bridge.
Meanwhile, kessie will be part of the Blaugrana midfield that already boasts the like of Sergio Busquets, pedri and Nico Gonzalez.
The Ivorian midfielder scored six goals in 31 league appearance last season as Ac Milan won the serie A title.
