LIGA - Barca: Pique about Umtiti & the end of his career
Gerard Pique breaks a lance for his team-mate Samuel Umtiti, who is often criticized at FC Barcelona. “He fulfills all of his obligations. His attitude is impeccable. He's never missed a training session. Another thing is who signed the contract - a president who was elected by the shareholders. People have to show more empathy, ”the Barca captain told the radio station“ La Sotana ”.
Due to his high salary and his susceptibility to injury, Umtiti should actually be sold in the expired transfer window. In the end, however, there was no suitable buyer for the 27-year-old central defender.
The Frenchman is contractually bound until 2023, a season shorter than Piqué, who at the age of 34 is quietly thinking about ending his career: “I look from season to season. I always think it's the last one and if there is another then it's perfect. The day I see that I can't give the team anything anymore, I'll leave. "
