5 players Barcelona got on a bargain under Bartomeu

Copa Del Rey 2017-18 - FC Barcelona vs Valencia CF
The club has concentrated upon their squad depth in the last two transfer windows.

#3: Samuel Umtiti (25 million Euros)

Barcelona v Real Madrid - La Liga
Umtiti would be carrying the hopes of France in the upcoming World Cup

Umtiti wasn't the biggest of all names when he arrived in Barcelona but fans were quick to notice something special in the defender. Samuel Umtiti first made himself popular in the 2016 UEFA Euro and shortly after earned the limelight in Barca. The Frenchman and his abilities were the main reason behind Mascherano's departure from the club.

Although there is uncertainty about Umtiti's future as the club, there is no doubt in the talents of the player. He is a master when it comes to interceptions and makes very few mistakes which could potentially cost his team. A leader on the pitch, Umtiti provides the perfect blend of physicality and technique to suit the game style of the Azulgranas.

Even if Bartomeu and his board decides to let go of Umtiti in relation to the whole fiasco about his contract, it is sure that Barcelona would make a huge profit out of the youngster. However, fans would like to see Big Sam don the Barcelona colors instead of opting for monetary benefits.
