SELL SELL SELL: One of Barcelona's transfer listed could be on the move
The Catalan giants need to shift some of their players to make some signings, and one of their listed players could be heading out soon.
Whenever we talk of a potential Barcelona signing, there's always the caveat that the club will need to sell in order to sign, as otherwise they'd be infringing the Financial Fair Play rules established by LaLiga. With the sale of Frenkie De Jong apparently in perpetual limbo and little else in terms of rumours, it looked like it was impossible for Barça to sign; luckily for the Blaugranas, a name has come up: Clement Lenglet.
The French defender was brilliant early in his career with the club, but has since fallen out of form and out of favour, and was one of those targeted to be shifted if the club wants to seal the signing of Jules Koundé over previously favoured Chelsea.
Now, according to Spanish newspaper Sport, Lenglet would be open to a move should his wages remain intact, and that's exactly what Barcelona are looking for. So far, there are three candidates to take on the Frenchman: Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Juventus
The three Italian sides are looking for a left sided centreback, and could be interested in a loan with an option to buy, which is what Barcelona need to lower their expenditures an register any new signings they make.
Clément Lenglet joined Barcelona in 2018 from Sevilla, and has so far made 159 appearances for the Catalan giants, winning LaLiga and the Supercopa de España in 2018-19 and the Copa del Rey in 2020-21.
