The main player of the World Cup champion has no ball to play in the past 1 year, and his value has been as high as 70 million euros, and now he is 2.5 million euros

Umtiti, the main central defender of the 2018 World Cup champion France, celebrated his 31st birthday on November 14, and for modern football, 31 is actually the golden age of a central defender, but he has not played for nearly a year and has not played for Lille in Ligue 1 so far this season. Umtiti's last appearance was on 22 January this year, when Lille faced Atletico de France in the French Cup.

Umtiti is now a complete glass man, and the injury list can't fit on a mobile phone screen. Umtiti has been recovering from an injury since undergoing knee surgery in February this year and has not yet returned from injury. Perhaps it was an injury that ruined the career of a World Cup winner.

Umtiti came through the Lyon academy and joined Barcelona in the summer of 2016 for a fee of 25 million euros, where he became a superstar and firmly occupied the position of Barca's main centre-back, helping the team win the World Cup in 2018 as the main centre-back of France. After being crowned in the Hercules Cup, Umtiti was plagued by injuries and only made 50 appearances for Barcelona in four seasons, and finally the two sides chose to terminate his contract amicably in the summer window of 2023, and then Umtiti returned to Ligue 1 on a free transfer to join Lille.

Umtiti, who was worth €70 million in 2018, has plummeted to €2.5 million. The 31-year-old Umtiti is on the verge of retirement, not because of age, but because of injuries.
