Lenglet shines at Atletico and opens debate over his signing
French defender Lenglet has surprised with his performance at Atletico Madrid, after having a difficult start at the club. Although his arrival at the club came after Feyenoord’s refusal to Atletico’s offers for Hancko, Lenglet has managed to stand out in the team and there are already voices advocating for his signing.
After waiting until the ninth matchday to debut, Lenglet has played 12 games, including two goals, and has shown to be a successful bet for the team. Although there have not yet been conversations with Barcelona to discuss his future beyond June, Atletico is considering the option of his signing, although there is no purchase option. The economic situation of Barcelona and the place that Lenglet has found in Atletico could be the cracks through which the team could enter his contracting.
