Tottenham Hotspur begin negotiations for Barcelona star Clement Lenglet
According to Spanish publication Sport , Tottenham Hotspur have begun negotiations for talented Barcelona centre-back Clement Lenglet to sign him permanently.
The 27-year-old has been on loan with the North London club for the 2022-23 season, and while he may not have set the world alight since his arrival, he has proven to be a useful player for Spurs.
The Frenchman has shown his versatility, capable of playing in a back three or a back four, and has developed a good understanding with his fellow defenders. His performances have not gone unnoticed, with reports suggesting that Spurs are looking to sign him on a permanent basis at the end of the season.
Tottenham are already advancing in negotiations with Barcelona, and the transfer could cost around €14 million. The reported asking price seems reasonable, and Lenglet’s experience in English football means he could be a valuable asset to the club.
Lenglet’s time at Barcelona may have come to an end, with the Catalan giants having a wealth of talent in the defensive positions. A permanent move away from Camp Nou would be ideal for the Frenchman, and Spurs could be the perfect destination for him.
With Tottenham in need of adding more depth to their squad, Lenglet’s permanent signing could be a wise decision. His ability to play in multiple defensive systems and his growing understanding of English football could be an important factor in Spurs’ success.
While Lenglet may not be the most high-profile signing, his addition to the squad could prove to be crucial in Spurs’ quest for success in the Premier League and the Champions League. Sometimes, we do need signing like this too.
Lenglet comes with his limitations. However, he adds something very valuable to the club – squad depth. Only time will tell if he can continue putting in impressive performances for us between now and the end of the season.
