Umtiti breaks silence on Barca future
“I’m still under contract with Barcelona until 2026, but it’s true that I really need to feel respected, appreciated and I feel good in Italy. I love the language, the food, the style," Samuel Umtiti told Canal Sports.
"A return to Lyon to play with Alexandre Lacazette? Lately, we were talking about it, I would really like to play with him again before the end of my career,” he said.
“It’s too early to talk about it, but yes for me Lecce is a springboard. Everyone thought I was dead, but I knew I was coming here to bounce back and go higher again.
“I’m doing very well, I’m happy after these four difficult years, these four difficult years. In the end, I managed to find a smile and the desire to play football again. I knew that if I was given that confidence back, I was going to be able to express myself as I did a few years back.”
