Barcelona loanee will make a decision about his future in the coming few weeks | OneFootball

FC Barcelona are set to play a crucial game tonight as they take on Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey semi-final at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium. Hansi Flick’s side will clearly be looking to get a win to get an advantage for the second leg, which is set to be played at the Metropolitano at the beginning of April.

Thus, this will be the second time that the Colchoneros visit the Montjuic this season, and this visit will be particularly special for the defender Clement Lenglet, who is playing this season on loan at the Madrid club.

Following a rather irregular start to the season, the Frenchman has now become an important player for Diego Simeone. He has already accumulated 10 starts in La Liga and another 5 in the UEFA Champions League.

Keeping in view the prominence he is enjoying with the Mattress Makers, there is already speculation about his continuity at the capital club for the next season. His current loan ends on 30th June 2025.

However, according to Mundo Deportivo, the center-back is still not clear about his future beyond the coming summer and will sit down with his agent in three weeks to make an assessment of his options and then make a decision about his future.

Lenglet is not a person to rush into decisions, and this characteristic will also make him consider his options carefully before selecting the best option going forward.

As things stand, he has only one year left on his contract with Barcelona, and he understands that he is not going to have any place in the Blaugrana team, especially keeping in view the surplus of center-backs that the Catalan team already has.

Thus, he will have to keep these aspects in mind as well when he makes a decision about his future before the end of March.
