FC Barcelona to target David Alaba in the summer

The Catalans are ready to renew their interest in Bayern Munich's David Alaba in the summer. The Austrian left-back has long been linked with a move to Barcelona with AS now reporting that technical director Robert Fernandez has requested the Barcelona's president Josep Bartomeu to provide funds for Alaba in the summer.

Signing the talented fullback won't be an easy task as he is a crucial member of Munich's side and has a contract with the Bavarians until 2021.

Samuel Umtiti to sign an extension with FC Barcelona soon

Mundo Deportivo reports that FC Barcelona have made renewing defender Samuel Umtiti's contract their top priority and are confident of doing so. The fact that the centre back has a current deal which runs until 2021 and a release clause of €60 million has made the club hierarchy lose some sleep.

After Aymeric Laporte's departure to Manchester City, Barcelona are looking to avoid any such mistake and are hopeful of making Umtiti sign a new deal soon where his release clause and his wages are set to be increased.
