Reports: Manchester United to trigger Barcelona superstar's £53 million release clause in January
This signing would paralyze Barcelona's momentum and at the same time make Manchester United a much better team!
What is the story?
Oh, Barça ... Oh, Barça ... when are you going to learn?
In spite of seeing how ineffective are the publication clauses mentioned in the contracts of their players (think Ronaldo - the original, Luis Figo and, of course, Neymar), especially in comparison with Real Madrid than any average decent player with a release clause of over 100 million pounds, and all this is ready to bite them on the back once more.
According to the good people of the Mirror, Jose Mourinho is not happy with the staff he has in his defense, and given the performance of United in Chelsea last weekend, he has good reason to be dissatisfied. While Eric Bailly impressed, Chris Smalling is still so prone to make mistakes, Victor Lindelof seemed hesitant and totally unimpressive, and Phil Jones is still on the brink of an injury crisis ... and the Portuguese has been looking for a partner for Ivorian
Although his initial goal was Raphael Varane, the French release clause of 200 million euros was too prohibitive (what did Madrid there, Barça?), Now he has advanced and focused his attention, and the United transfer kit, in Samuel Umtiti ... which has a relatively "cheap" release clause of £ 53 million.
In case you did not know
Umtiti, signed for £ 22 million in 2016 from Lyon, struggled at first, but quickly adapted to the unique style of the Catalan game and with increasing confidence in the ball became its defensive pillar. He, with this incredible little man of Rosario, was the best player of Barça in this brilliant start to the season, and Ernesto Valverde hate to see him go
The importance of the question
The French, however, seems to be dissatisfied with his contract, because he is the same as he was when he came in as Jerez Mascherano's replacement, and does not take into account that he is now an indispensable member of the starting line. at Camp Nou.
Take the author
While the rumors that Utiiti wants to move have been floating for some time in Spain, and this is a reason for the interest of United, Ed Woodward and company. You will know that it could be a trick for Umtiti to negotiate a better deal in Barcelona.
However, if this is not the case, it could be a huge blow, and with Bailly sharing his mother tongue with Umtiti, communication between the two would not be a big problem.
