The operation gone out of the Barça has been still in big measured the script written by the club, that has attained esquivar some important surprise. With the signing of Laporte by the Manchester City, remains signalled that Samuel Umtiti only thinks in Barcelona
The exit of Neymar course to Paris Saint-Germain has increased notably the sensitivity of the FC Barcelona with regard to his clauses of rescission, that have remained obsolete after the last movements in the market. After the 'escape' of the Brazilian the past summer, there have been several clubs that have 'touched' to important footballers, but for the moment the Catalans have gone out triunfadores.
The last case is, neither more neither less, the one of Samuel Umtiti, whose 60 million euros seem a ridiculousness seen the investments that in the last months have made in defences. With some prices of exit elevating week after week, the Liverpool did to jump the banking with his almost 85 'kilos' by Virgil Go Dijk, but the Manchester City has not remained short.
Precisely, the 'citizens' were one of the big worries in the Camp Nou, since they looked for a central and asked the availability of the French. Finally, after his refusal the bet has been by Aymeric Laporte, that will cost something more than the player culé but has not doubted in accepting the offer of the English.
The landing in the Etihad of the ex of the Athletic Club puts of self-evident that Umtiti is engaged with the Barça, and is that to having given the himself, today no longer would follow visitendo of Barcelona. This does not mean that the club can relax to the hour of encarar his renewal, but is a big argument to the hour to judge his fidelity to the cause.
Sergi Roberto, also of 'the resistance'
Although the extension of his agreement announced does some weeks, Sergi Roberto also has been a worry in the offices of the Camp Nou by a similar case to the of his mate. His clause of rescission was fixed in 40 million euros, and were not few those that sondearon to the Catalan on a possible transfer. For joy of the Barça, the tale of the canterano also finish with happy final.
