Barcelona looking for a way to offload Umtiti

The French star is close to the exit doors of the club.

Barcelona

are looking for a way to sell their French defender

Samuel Umtiti

.

After a problem during Lionel Messi's contract extension with Barcelona last summer, Umtiti refused to leave the club, which made him a hated figure among the fans. He intends to return to his good days in Barcelona and will not give up on his dream. However, he is one of the club's most paid players and Barca must sell him in order to pay

In fact, Blaugrana intends to negotiate with the French defender to convince him to leave. However, Umtiti has conditions for choosing his new club, the most important of which is the presence of the next team in the Champions League, and for this reason, he rejected five offers in the summer.

This situation has made it difficult for Barca chief Mateu Alemany to prepare for Umtiti's departure. He recently stated in an interview that he has not been asked to reduce his salary and that may be why Barca intend to sell him.
