Olympique Marseille are interested in Barcelona outcast Samuel Umtiti.

Barca are desperate to see him leave, with questions hanging over the defender due to his persistent injury problems and concerns over his performances over the last 18 months or so.

Now, Le 10 Sport have reported that Marseille are sniffing around. The French outlet say that Umtiti's name has come up in conversations between Barcelona and Marseille for a move involving Konrad de la Fuente.

Barcelona know that shifting Umtiti won't be easy because of his high salary and, at 27, his injury record suggests that he could already be on the decline. They've already tried to move him on in the past, but have been unable to.

Umtiti played 826 minutes in 2020/21 over 16 appearances in all competitions. It's believed that Barcelona are happy to sell him for between five and 10 million euros, and France is seen as the most likely destination.
