It seems that Bartomeu’s heritage will remain latent for at least some time and that is because another of Xavi’s discards for next season, Clément Lenglet, does not intend to facilitate his departure.
The player has referred to his contract until 2026 to put obstacles to a transfer this summer and that Barcelona was willing to let him out for less than €15M, but of course, nobody pays him the tab that the Barça entity pays him.
This will force Alemany and company to proceed in the same way as with Coutinho, on loan to a Premier League team, paying half his fee, and then praying to see if the player offers a better performance and can be sold even for the minimum.
Arsenal, Tottenham and Newcastle are some of the teams interested in the Frenchman, who after his first season at Barcelona, has been in free fall and now he will have to row to return to being what he was.
