Benfica has set its sights on Samuel Umtiti and would be willing to pay 10 million euros to sign the central defender. However, it is difficult for the French to accept, since he would have to give up part of his salary

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Samuel Umtiti follows without surrendering in his obstinacy to remain in the FC Barcelona​. The French is one of the descartes that has signalled Joan Laporta, but in spite of this his intention keeps on being to remain in the group barcelonista. Thus, the Frenchman has worked more than ever these holidays to be able to arrive to the pre-season in the best possible form, something that has achieved, as they have corroborated the doctors of the Barça.

However, in spite of that is better that in a lot of years, his exit does not have gone back backwards to eyes of the club. The Barcelona need to recess his mass salarial with urgency of face to this season to be able to inscribe in LaLiga to Eric García, the Kun Agüero and Memphis Depay, the new signings. For this, have to give off of several high index cards, as it is the one of the frank-Cameroonian, that is in the market from does a lot.

The problem is that in spite of all this and that Koeman and the entity have left him clear that it is the last option for the centre of the defence, the one of Yaoundé insists in remaining . The idea of the defender is to follow and win a place in the Barcelona and, in principle, will not accept to go out unless it was to play in a team with aspirations. The defender only will go to a group of level, by what already there would be descartado accept the proposals of lower groups that have arrived by him.

One of these offers is of which does echo 'Sportive World', that ensures that Ekrem Konur, expert in the market of signings, has desvelado a proposal of traspaso of the Benfica by 'Big Sam'. The Portuguese are looking for central and would be had to pay 10 million euros to do with him. An ofrecimiento more than generous by a player that carries several years without having continuity by fault of the injuries and giving a very poor performance.

Agreement complicated with Umtiti

Nevertheless, it does not seem that the League was US a destination apetecible for Umtiti taking into account his wish to be still in a team of elite. Besides, it is impossible that the lusos can pay him his current wage, by what the agreement between both parts antoja complicated. The French does not want to leave to win this money and, as it has commented , will not accept proposed to the drop as it could be the one of the Portuguese.
