The explanation to the ‘strange’ renovation of Umtiti
Samuel Umtiti renews with Barça until 2026. But nevertheless, this strange movement that said like this, has left the fans of the Catalans open-mouthed, has a trick. And it is not normal to renew a player who charges the most from the squad and who has been looking for a way out for a long time. Obviously everything has a reason.
The explanation for the renewal of Umtiti with Barça until 2026
The explanation is found in the ‘Fair Play’ financial culé. Umtiti that counts between little or nothing for Xavi and in general the sports direction culé, contract ended in 2023 and is one of the best paid of the staff. This fact, prevented the registration of Ferran Torres and LaLiga. To remedy it and in the absence of offers for the French and the null idea of leaving the club, Laporta and his board of directors have drawn on economic engineering.
Basically they have extended the contract of the footballer who has agreed to lower his salary a 10% every year in exchange for signing 3 More years, so you will receive the same salary you have now but spread over more years. This move frees up salary mass and allows Barcelona to register Ferran and Umtiti ensures that he will continue to receive a few more years if he does not leave the club, which seems to be not possible since no one wants to face the high salary they receive, nothing consistent with the devaluation that the plant has suffered in recent years.
