The renewal of Umtiti in his moment was not very understood, but the level of the defence and his youth allowed to think that it could recover and keep the projection that showed, at least a good part. Years afterwards, the things do not do more than worsening for the defender that does not raise head.
Any trainer finishes to trust Umtiti after his injury, that was treated with the selection of France like priority in that period, the same that approached a lot to each medical body that has paraded by the club in the last years and all, have had the same conclusion: it does not follow.
Toni Juanmartí declared for The Goal that the doctors of the Barcelona left in clear that the renewal of the player was not viable and in spite of this report, the club offered him an extension of agreement, a rise of wage and years afterwards, one of the big problems in the staff as well it reflects in the actuality.
The journalist revealed a secret to voices, but in the club seem more arrepentidos that never of something that not even did with this directive, by what the request expresses for Koeman and Xavi was to recover it, no for having his services, but to be able to sell it and take out something of money by his index card.
Finally, the player does not have in mind go out of the club and until posed the possible renewal by a year so that it showed in a last opportunity his cost, to the time that could recover caché and like this the Barcelona obtain something of money by his sale, a relation of bilateral gain.
Again, Portugal
The Benfica wanted to help to solve the things for Umtiti and the Barcelona, but the French did not want to give off of his wage and neither be in a staff with fewer requirements, although it was this same the one who complicated him the life to the culés in Champions and advanced to eighth. Now they go back to ask his index card, but the defender does not seem to be had to go out.
