Tottenham will have the option to sign Clement Lenglet on a permanent deal from Barcelona once the centre-back’s loan move is completed, according to Sport.
The Spanish publication has reported the 27-year-old is set to join Spurs on a season-long loan with the Premier League side able to make the move permanent for over €10 million (£8.6m).
The report also explains that Lenglet, who had some reservations about the move to North London, was convinced after discussing his potential place in the side with head coach Antonio Conte.
Spurs’ expected capture of Lenglet will see him bolster Conte’s options in defence with his versatility across the back line able to provide cover and competition for both Eric Dier and Ben Davies.
It will also serve as a fresh start for the France international, who spent the majority of the previous campaign rooted to the Barcelona bench under Xavi.
The former Sevilla defender made just 26 appearances in all competitions, while he started just seven games in LaLiga (Transfermarkt).
Spurs Web Opinion
The reported buy option for Lenglet is not bad at all and it could prove to be big value for money for Tottenham if he proves to be a decent option during his expected loan spell.
He had a poor season last time out but a change of club and league could act as the catalyst for change and towards helping him at least regain some previous form.
