  • SAM-MER SPEND

    Samuel Umtiti will be sold by Barcelona this summer, according to reports.

    And that has put the likes of Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea on red alert.

    According to Sport, the defender could be available for between as little as £26million and £35m when the transfer window reopens.

  • TICKING CLOCK

    European football chiefs have admitted for the first time the season may have to be scrapped.

    A joint letter to all leagues and clubs confirms that finishing the campaign despite the coronavirus crisis is the collective aim of European football.

    It promised: “Concrete plans are being drawn up.

    “Work is now focusing on scenarios encompassing the months of July and August, including the possibility that the UEFA competitions restart after the completion of domestic leagues.”

    The letter added: “ A joint management of calendars is strictly required as the conclusion of the current season must be coordinated with the start of the new one, which may be partly impacted because of the overstretch.

    “Closely following the development of the current situation, we will indicate as soon as possible, and ideally by mid-May, which of the plans can be enacted for the completion of the season without leaving anyone behind.

    “Stopping competitions should really be the last resort after acknowledging that no calendar alternative would allow to conclude the season.”
