After spending 6 seasons at Barça, where he suffered numerous injuries after the 2018 World Cup, Samuel Umtiti has just joined Lecce on a one-season loan, with no option to buy. The 28-year-old French central defender hopes to relaunch in Serie A, and above all to be spared from physical glitches. The world champion could already be in the Lecce group this weekend against Empoli. Just after his departure from Barcelona, the former Lyonnais wanted to thank Barça, sending them a nice message:
“I would like to thank FC Barcelona and all its supporters for the great years we have lived together, I wish you the best this season.”
Former Umtiti teammates also sent him a message to wish him good luck for the future. This is the case of the Spanish international Ansu Fati, who left a touching message to the French on Instagram.
Ansu Fati’s poignant message to Umtiti!
“Good luck Sam! Thank you for taking care of me like your little brother, for all the advice and the laughs together. I wish you the best in this new stage, I will miss you!”
to summarize
Samuel Umtiti has been loaned by Barca to Lecce until the end of the season. Blaugrana left winger Ansu Fati took the opportunity to send him a message on social networks. The 2018 world champion hopes to revive in Italy.
