Umtiti

Barça's patience with Samuel Umtiti is wearing thin. The club is understood to be frustrated with the player's attitude, and has given him one week to agree to a move before further measures are taken. If the player does not accept any of the offers currently on the table from Ligue 1 clubs, the club may unilaterally terminate his contract. SPORT had reported earlier this month that this was an option being considered by FC Barcelona, who remain desperate to reduce their wage bill. They have already trodden this path with Matheus Fernandes, and may be forced to do so again if the French centre back does not agree to a move.
