Umtiti And Lenglet, opposite realities in Barcelona and France

It calls the attention, what less, the curious situation that are starring this season 2018-19 Clément Lenglet and Samue Umtiti, those who live parallel realities in the FC Barcelona and the selection of France. The ex of the Seville, that landed this past summer in return of 36 million euros, did with the titularity from principles of the course thanks to the continuous problems of knee of Umtiti.

The ex of the Lyon lost a lot of parties, returned to finals of October and recayó in the injury, what has allowed that Lenglet have free road to play, improve and strengthen in the titularity like mate of Gerard Hammered in the defensive saga. Lenglet Has won the confidence of Ernesto Valverde, the one who to these heights of the season prefers him to him before that to Umtiti in the important parties.

It does not occur the same, for nothing, with Didier Deschamps in the selection of France. The seleccionador has the experience to having had to his orders to Samuel Umtiti in the World-wide, the last Eurocopa and, in definite, all the parties of France in the last years. Umtiti Is used to to surrender to big level with France, and the fact that now it was recovered has caused that Deschamps go back to summon him with the 'bleus'.

The '23' of the FC Barcelona was headline and played the ninety minutes against Moldavia this past Friday, to a good level of performance in spite of not having continuity in the Barça along the last weeks. And Clément Lenglet, in spite of being completing a big season and be title day yes and day also in the group culé, follows without being summoned by Deschamps with France.

Deschamps Still no 'know' to Lenglet

It is not that the seleccionador have it to him sworn, but simply it prefers the well known, and follows summoning to an Umtiti to the one who knows wonderfully, whereas to Lenglet has not had him still to his orders although it handle good reports of him. The '15' of the Barça does not have experience in France and would need to adapt, whereas Umtiti is strengthened from does years.

At the end, it treats of an atypical situation between two big head offices that, fortunately, form part of the staff of the FC Barcelona. There is not doubt that Lenglet prompt will be summoned with France if it keeps his excelso performance, and the two defenders culés could even share defensive axis some day in the 'bleu', in spite of being the two left-handed head offices. The situation of both is condemned to balance .
