Due to their current financial situation, the club are not allowed to register any new players ahead of their upcoming LaLiga campaign - which begins in three days time against Rayo Vallecano.
As per ESPN, Christensen and Kessie both have a clause in their contracts that would allow them to exercise the right to leave Barcelona for free if they are not registered in time.
Other new signings, Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Jules Koundé are also yet to be registered, as well as Sergi Roberto and Ousmane Dembélé - who both signed new deals after their initial contracts had expired.
Christensen and Kessie's situation is slightly different to the other players who need registering as they joined the club for no fee, meaning they would be allowed to leave for free.
Should this happen, Barcelona could be forced to speak to the players' agents to persuade them to say. Clubs have until the end of August to register new signings for their squads.
Barcelona have spent over €150m on signings this summer and are looking to sell off/negotiate pay cuts with some of their biggest earners.
The club are also selling off their television rights as another way of giving the club a much-needed cash injection.
