The Villarreal-FC Barcelona of this Tuesday finished being a festival of goals (4-4) very powerful for the show, but left very clear the defensive problems of the team of Ernesto Valverde, that missed as never the figure of Gerard Hammered, that had played absolutely all the parties of LaLiga Santander but that rested against the castellonenses.
The place of the Catalan occupied it Samuel Umtiti and the true is that it left clear that is missing him rhythm after his injury of knee. It was not neither the shadow of what was the past season, neither physically neither neither mentally. To day of today, bet by his titularity seems a total risk, and more taking into account how are Clément Lenglet or the own Hammered.
All this arrives in full rumorología on the signing of Matthijs of Ligt by the FC Barcelona, that seems to be increasingly near. The arrival of the central Dutch, pertinent of the Ajax of Ámsterdam, would cause movements in the first team culé, and the French could be one of the maximum victims.
It is necessary to take into account that Of Ligt, to the equal that his compatriot Frenkie of Jong, if it comes has to be to play of regular form. With the status of indisputable by part of Hammered and the one of emergent head office by part of Lenglet, sees complicated that the one who lose leadership was not Umtiti.
Umtiti Has poster in Europe
If the FC Barcelona decides to put in the market to Samuel Umtiti in front of the arrival of Of Ligt, there would be several teams interested in his signing. One of them would be the Manchester United, that already wanted him the past season and even was had to pay his clause, that was of 60 million euros. His renewal frustrated the traspaso.
On the other hand the Rome also estería interested in ficharle to cover the possible drop of Manolas. Powerful teams would be had to offer interesting quantities of money by a defence that has something more than two months to show that it still can recover his level.
