It is not going to be easy for Barça to lose weight in winter. According to Sport, Samuel Umtiti has no intention of leaving BarçaEspecially after feeling useful in El Sadar’s match against Osasuna, the Frenchman could personally renegotiate his contract with Joan Laporta. His file is one of the highest in the squad. Its renovation, approved by Josep Maria Bartomeu, has been one of the most burdensome in recent memory in Bará.
Umtiti is not the only one who is ‘chained’ to the Camp Nou. According to Mundo Deportivo, Sergiño Dest has no intention of moving either. In a somewhat surprising way for the short time he has seen him play, Xavi has decided to do without the Dutchman with an American passport. For the moment, however, Dest is still thinking about trying to succeed with the Barça shirt and does not want to go out at Christmas.
The other two names that ring for an immediate exit are Coutinho and Luuk de Jong. The first is pending a meeting this Christmas Reported this Thursday by Mundo Deportivo. For its part, the Dutchman could be loaned out. The latest rumor is that he could enter into an operation with Alexis Sánchez, but that exchange would have to be authorized by Sevilla, who has the last word with the former PSV Eindhoven striker. The departure of these players would free up a certain salary mass to make additions, but Mateu Alemany has a job.
