Hansi Flick has taken the opportunity to assess his Barcelona squad in recent weeks, although some have had more chances to impress compared to others. Clement Lenglet is one of the few senior players who have been around, and so far, he seems to have taken his chance.
Lenglet was a stick to leave Barcelona for the third summer in a row. He was not accounted for by Xavi Hernandez, who sent him to Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa respectively. The Catalans were hoping to sell him on this occasion, although another loan looks much more likely.
Nothing has progressed in the Lenglet situation, so he remains at Barcelona for now. He impressed Flick during the pre-season, as revealed by Tot Costa.
