The Catalan giants have officially announced the Frenchman's loan move to the Italian club.

FC Barcelona have officially announced Samuel Umtiti's loan move to Serie A side Lecce until June 2023.

After weeks of searching for a way out, the Catalan club have finally found a place for him at the Italian club, who will pay part of the player's wages.

Thus ends an exit saga that has been ongoing for months. Continuous injuries kept him out of the team, eroding Xavi's faith in him.

The Frenchman will have prominence in Lecce and a new adventure that will help him get back to having good feelings.

The loan deal with the Italian has no option to buy. Samuel Umtiti will return to FC Barcelona next season.

Having taken care of the Frenchman's departure, the Barca management are now working on the sales of Dest and Braithwaite. Aubameyang and Memphis are also close to leaving.
