This star from Barcelona refused to play with Cristiano Ronaldo in Saudi Arabia

Barcelona needs to get rid of more players so as not to get complicated with the financial Fair Play. The main concern right now is getting rid of Clément Lenglet, who has one of the highest salaries and will not even participate throughout the season. The Frenchman has a valid contract until 2026.

The culé team wants to gain space in the wage bill and, therefore, they are looking for a way out for the French in the coming days. The defender who was already loaned to Tottenham last season did not convince in the Premier League and they gave up buying his card. Now, he too has turned down an offer from Saudi Arabia.

In the last hours, Lenglet rejected the possibility that had been presented to him of following his career at Al-Nassr, the club where Cristiano Ronaldo currently plays. The Frenchman still wants to continue in Europe and that is why he decided not to continue with this negotiation. At Barça they begin to worry, since having a player without adding minutes and with his salary is not positive.

The coach was clear with his position

Xavi has already told him that he will not take it into account. In fact, the French defender traveled to the United States in the preseason, but he did not even play minutes on this tour. Lenglet will have to look for a new club as soon as possible so as not to stall his career, since he could go a year without playing.
