Hansi Flick, the new coach of FC Barcelona, is considering keeping Clément Lenglet in his squad.
The French defender was expected to make a move this summer after spending last season on loan at Aston Villa. However, according to Mundo Deportivo, Xavi’s successor was impressed by the former Nancy man during pre-season. And that is why he has therefore asked for the French international to be removed from the transfer list.
A second chance for Lenglet
Barça need Lenglet all the more as Ronald Araujo, one of their starting full-backs, is currently unavailable due to injury.
Lenglet played four full seasons with the Blaugrana before moving to England to join Tottenham. He had a decent record of 160 games played and 7 goals scored. If he returns to the club, he should therefore have no trouble finding his feet quickly.
