5 potential replacements for Samuel Umtiti if he leaves Barcelona

#2 Jonathan Tah (Bayer Leverkusen)

Tah has been scouted by Barcelona before and would be a great signing

The towering centre-back seems to have been around forever but aged just 22, he has taken his time to grow away from the spotlight and could now be set for a move to one of Europe's leading teams.

Deceptively calm for someone who is 6'4 in height, he has been praised by many people for his assertiveness; speed and clear thinking that help him make good decisions even in the face of approaching danger.

He has been hailed in the German press as the natural successor to Bayern Munich’s Jerome Boateng and given the brilliance of the Bayern star, Tah certainly has a long way to go.

Like most of his fellow Bayer 04 starlets, clubs across Europe have been looking the way of the towering star and despite recently signing a new 5-year deal to stay put at the Bay Arena, it is said that some big hitters have already sent out feelers about him

His rugged nature and excellent positioning coupled with his height and aerial ability mean that Barcelona could become less susceptible to conceding from corners with him in the side.
