Lenglet plays for his presence against Barcelona in the match against Getafe
Clement Lenglet faces Getafe this Sunday in a crucial match for his participation in the upcoming game against Barcelona in Montjuïc. The central defender has been a regular in Simeone’s starting lineups, scoring two goals and being key in the ball outlet from the back.
Lenglet was loaned from Barcelona in the final days of the summer market and his start was not easy, but he has taken a step forward. However, there is a setback that could be decisive: Lenglet has received a yellow card in each of his first four appearances in the league as a rojiblanco.
If Lenglet sees his fifth yellow card in the derby against Getafe, he will not be able to face Barcelona. Lenglet is performing and fulfilling his duties, and at 29 years old, he does not contemplate a return to Barcelona.
Atlético is already studying the option of keeping him at the end of the season. For now, he must continue to perform and has his most special game in Montjuïc to shine… if he does not see a yellow card against Getafe.
