Barcelona set price for Man Utd, Arsenal target Umtiti

Barcelona have set their price to sell Samuel Umtiti.

The Mirror says Barcelona will demand a fee of €60m for Umtiti, who has been attracting interest from the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United during this transfer window.

The 25-year-old has been at the Nou Camp since 2016 but has never established himself as a permanent fixture in the first-team, and made just 14 appearances in all competitions for Barcelona last season.

The centre-back is considered expendable by the Catalonian club, who are looking to raise funds as they aim to splash the cash on Antoine Griezmann and potentially Neymar this summer.

Both Arsenal and United are known to be prioritising strengthening their defences during this transfer window.
