One of these calls Samuel Umtiti and already comanda the defence blaugrana with a soltura and handle improper of a player that carries little more than a month training with the team.

I am trying to adapt me the more quickly possible, learning to each training to be able to surrender in the parties. It is only the principle but for now goes well, look forward to to improve over time", confirmed the own player.

Samuel whose characteristic are treaded to what needs the Barça in the axis of his defence. He same defined like a player that knows "to go out from backwards with the balloon played, never clear although us presionen. It is the style of the Barça and is the style that likes me". 

And for this adaptation to the game and to his mates the Spanish language is not being a problem. If for now it does not defend properly with him, if that is learning to steps enlarged and already "on the lawn there is not problem, learnt the most important words to be able to communicate me with them". A brave and smart man, that knows to where comes and what has to do to triumph. And it does it. Long life to Samuel Umtiti in the Barça, can irrigate big parties.
