Clement Lenglet 'wants to stay and fight for Barcelona place'

Barcelona may reportedly struggle to part ways with defender Clement Lenglet during the January transfer window.

In recent weeks, the France international has been suggested as one of the players who Barcelona could look to sell in order to boost their financial situation.

With the 26-year-old struggling for regular game time under previous boss Ronald Koeman, there was seemingly an assumption that he would be open to a new challenge.

However, according to Marca, Lenglet intends on remaining at Camp Nou having been heavily involved since the arrival of new boss Xavi.

Lenglet has made four starts and one substitute appearance under the Barcelona legend, encouraging him to fight for his place during the second half of the campaign.

Regardless of whether they accept an offer for his signature, Barcelona may have little option but to respect that Lenglet has a contract until 2025.
