The FC Barcelona follows litigating by the titles of the season, but when it arrive the summer, posed a new reform in the staff. The Catalans have remained with a very short team after the high and drops of the wintry window, and the intention is to consolidate a young block and with talent to take advantage of the last years of Leo Messi and prepare the project of future. The series of successes has to keep.

One of the plots that comes under scrutiny is the one of the central, that goes back to demand to the sportive managers. Gerard Hammered is 33 years old and needs a spare, and in the left-handed profile, although it has Clément Lenglet, also there are doubts on Samuel Umtiti. With youngsters like Ronald Araujo or Jean-Clair Todibo in the recámara, the Barcelona follow very attentive to the opportunities that offers the market.

One of them is Dayot Upamecano, that carries long under the radar barcelonista and could change of prompt airs. The born footballer in Évreux is a defender corpulento and powerful but with a technical capacity stood out, and after forming in the quarry of the Valenciennes, has exploded under the tutela of the factory Network Bull. At present, it is one of the references of the Leipzig, the big disclosure of the Bundesliga.

In some statements to 'RMC Sport', the youngster spoke of his future, since it finish agreement in 2021 and accumulate him the beaux. His signing would be valued in near of 50 million euros, since although his clause of rescission rises until the 60 'kilos', if there is not agreement for his prompt renewal, the Germans will have to listen proposals. To his 21 years, underlined that it keeps the feet in the floor.

I will speak well with my agents and my parents at the end of the season. And we will take the correct decision".

The Barça is slope of Umtiti

The problem of the Barça with Upamecano is that it could observe him like alternative to Umtiti, whereas others have him like priority. The informations that circulate in France and Germany ensure that the Bayern of Munich already has initiated the contacts to carry to another player of one of his opponents, and besides in the Premier League also there would be others, like the Arsenal, that already would have set up the machinery.
