Although Ernesto Valverde tries to give him rest whenever it can, Samuel Umtiti is playing it practically everything with the FC Barcelona and, with the selection of France, Didier Deschamps also has strengthened him like titling indisputable in the saga

If it plays the complete party of the next Tuesday against Germany, Samuel Umtiti will have contested 540 minutes of game followed with the selection of France, without having rested neither one. In each stop by parties of selection have contested two parties, by what for the moment the central French accumulates 450 minutes with the 'bleu', to which it is necessary to join the minutes that has contested this season with the FC Barcelona.

Umtiti Is one of the best head offices of the world and, of all they, possibly the most resistant to physical level. It has not suffered injuries of importance during the time that carries in the FC Barcelona, and whenever Valverde has planted him on the terrain of game his performance has been excelso, as it is being it when Deschamps puts him on the lawn with France.

Leo Messi also had played up to now 450 minutes with Argentina, but will not play the second party of the next stop of selections and, therefore, Umtiti will be the only player of field of the FC Barcelona that it will be able to arrive to the figure of 540 minutes with the selection in what it goes of season 2017-18, a good news for the player but, by against, also a risk for the Barça.

To Umtiti and Leo Messi, this yes, follow them closely Ter Stegen, Mascherano, Paulinho and Luis Suárez. The four have rested an only split of the five played up to now, although the charrúa will not add more minutes to the have not played with Uruguay to recover well of his problems.

Other players of the Barça are not selected

The another expensive of the coin are the footballers of the staff of the FC Barcelona that have not contested neither a minute with the selections in what it goes of course. It treats of Denis, Dembélé, Rafinha, Paco Alcácer, Sergi Roberto and Aleix Vidal, that can boast to be cooler of face to the next parties, although in some of these cases have not played by injury.

The Barça, in any case, already knows that it will have to take care to the maximum to Umtiti of face to the decisive stretch of the season 2017-18. The French player, without place to doubts, is the footballer of field that more minutes contests with his selection.
