The French club is about to rule out Barça’s central defender
The Gauls could have an agreement with Benfica for Morato very advanced
Rennes is about to rule out the signing of Samuel Umtiti. To the doubts about his physical condition, expressed by the coach of the French team, Bruno Genesio, has been added a market opportunity that has been put within sight of the French entity in recent hours. This is Felipe Rodrigues da Silva, known in football as Moratoa 21-year-old Brazilian midfielder who would meet the requirements that the Rennes sports management seeks to cover the loss of Nayef Aguerd, transferred to West Ham in this summer market for 35 million.
Umtiti seemed to be called to be the relief of the Moroccan. He had even traveled to France to close the transfer. But Morato’s option is more convincing in the French club. The Gauls could have even already reached an agreement with Benfica on the transfer price, which would rise to 10 million.
Rennes is not the first train that Umtiti misses. The French center-back was already very close to Fiorentina, but the operation was frustrated due to economic issues, since the Italian club could not assume the figures in which the player’s record moves. Umtiti was convinced to return to his country, but now it seems that he will have to look for a new destination.
