Maybe makes a loan easier, but he could've always just went to another club on lower wages anyway so idk if this really makes a difference. As far as we know he just rejected every move even if Barca kept paying part of his salary, because he thinks he belongs to a CL team.
How i see it only/main positive for Barca is to stretch his salary over longer time in case he keeps refusing to leave as well as saving a little bit of money due to the reduced salary.
And i guess for Umtiti it's mainly about keeping his delusional dream of reaching his 2017-2018 level again alive. Could stay longer at Barca and may help him a bit with fans not booing him every chance there is

That's what the club believe according to reports.
At Bar?a they know that there are two French clubs willing to gamble for Umtiti with a 6-month loan, which Bar?a considers a priority. And is that despite the renovation, Umtiti has no place in the current sports project. The idea of Bar?a has always been that Umtiti can show himself with minutes of play in order to revalue himself as a footballer. The player also understood it that way. It will be necessary to see what happens since the club now does not have so much pressure to place him although it will try.

If he can regain his prior form just a little bit, or at least playing decently a bit more consistently, I suppose it will help us since we are so short on CB these days.
+1. I don't expect him to ever regain his pre-WC form, but any improvement over his current condition helps...We need a tight ship at the back, desperately
Don't sweat it. If there would've been any signs of him regaining any sort of form at least 1 coach would've given him a solid chance. He's after all an experienced defender who was at least top 10 in his prime. But apparently no coach has seen him show any sign of usefulness during training to give him a chance.
He's a lost cause. We saw it during the run Koeman gave him. His game against Sevilla was atrocious.

Honestly i wouldn't even be suprised if Umtiti would think he can get back his spot at Barca and get the WC ticket that way.
If he was in it for the money only he'd sit out his contract or try to push Barca into paying his remaining salary and then get into whatever club that still offers good money but instead he's opting to stay.

Pretty sure most fans will agree, but we're sadly not in a situation to not care what players are getting paid. Saving 10% or something and being more flexible with FFP now is at least better than nothing.

Renewed Messi but not Umtiti lmfao
Imagine how good we could have balanced the books renewing Messi instead of letting his contract expire
