Koeman on Umtiti's Barça situation: Impossible for everyone to play

Samuel Umtiti has been included in the Barcelona squad for Sunday's match against Getafe in LaLiga after it emerged this week he was set to stay at Camp Nou.

However, that doesn't mean coach Ronald Koeman is happy about the situation after the French defender turned down the chance to leave this summer.

"I don't think it's good to talk about individuals," Koeman said in a press conference on Saturday when asked about Umtiti.

"The club know what I want and who I want to keep working with. But I have always said, I respect the players with contracts.

"Everyone knows perfectly well who we count on in this squad and who will have a hard time playing games. For some players, it's very complicated and it's not good for them or for us.

"If we have all our players back, we are going to have 31, 32 players ... it's impossible to work with that many. How can a coach manage 32 players? I've done all my coaching courses but not with 32 players!"
