According to the Spanish "Daily Sports" newspaper, Barca coach Koeman and the club management believe that French centre-back Umtiti will find it difficult to get another chance.
Umtiti has been mired in transfer rumours before, but he reached an agreement with Laporta and got one last chance to perform.
But from the current situation, Umtiti's opportunity has not been seized, and Barca is putting pressure on the players to let him go in the winter window and reduce the total salary of the team.
Umtiti's contract with Barca expires in 2023, Barca considered selling or renting it out this summer, the player side only wanted to rent out, but asked to go to a Champions League team, Barca received offers that did not meet their expectations, and eventually Umtiti stayed in the team.
However, Umtiti was unable to enter Koeman's plan, he has not played a single minute this season, and Barca's decision to let him leave the team in the winter window may give him the opportunity to play in the Copa del Rey or the league and also attract buyers.
Barca's centre-backs are currently well-manned and Umtiti is unable to gain a foothold in this team.
