‘Absolute Steal’ ‘If We Pass This Up We Are Dumb’ Fans Call On Arsenal To Make Bid After Defender’s £35m Price Tag Is Revealed

Barcelona are willing to sell Samuel Umtiti for just €40m (£35m) this summer, according to Marca.

The centre-back is reportedly a target for Arsenal as they look to strengthen their backline ahead of next season.


Fans on Twitter feel such a price for Umtiti would be a bargain, and that the club should make their move for the Frenchman as soon as possible:

A few are worried about his injury record:

The reason for the low figure is reportedly because the 25-year-old has a complicated knee injury which may require him to spend spells on the sidelines.

It means that Barca are willing to cash in Umtiti this summer, but the player is said to be reluctant to move clubs as he is happy at the Camp Nou.

With that being the case, the Gunners will have to weigh up the risk of signing an injury prone player, as well as the fact he may not even want to come.
