In Barcelona, they are already starting to prepare for the next season and one of the tasks is to define the future of center-back Samuel Umtiti, who has regained minutes with Quique Setién but could change teams in the next transfer window.
According to Italian journalist Nicolo Schira, Arsenal and Chelsea are the two teams most interested in signing Samuel Umtiti, who has lost a lot of ground at Barcelona in recent seasons due to complicated injuries.
On Chelsea's side, coach Frank Lampard has been following Samuel Umtiti for a long time and has given his approval for his signing. In fact, there have already been initial contacts with the player's agent, Arturo Canales, according to reports from England.
On the other hand, Arsenal has been looking for a young and experienced center-back for some time. Samuel Umtiti, who is 26 years old, fits that profile. In fact, the 'Gunners' have already inquired about the player's price and Barcelona has responded that they want 50 million euros.
