English press sources reported that FC Barcelona will recover its coffers with a lot of money from Newcastle
And according to the English newspaper, “The Sun”, the British club Newcastle aims to sign the French player Samuel Umtiti, the Barcelona defender, in the next winter transfer season.
The French defender has been linked for a while with the departure from the Catalan club, after his level deteriorated due to his lack of participation in matches since the Dutchman Ronald Koeman was coaching the Blaugrana.
The newspaper pointed out that Newcastle, the English club, is ready to present an attractive offer to its counterpart Barcelona of up to 20 million euros in order to contract with Umtiti.
And it seems that Umtiti, who suffers from a lack of participation in the ranks of Barca with the new coach Xavi, has not changed much from what it was in the days of coach Koeman.
The newspaper stated that the Catalan club is striving to permanently get rid of Umtiti, whose level has greatly decreased due to injuries, especially since he receives a large salary.
It is worth noting that Barcelona occupies the seventh place in the table of the Spanish League, with 28 points, after 18 tables have passed.
