Finally, the French defender will finish in the Premier League by a season more, but no in the Tottenham as it had predicted to the beginning of this window of transfers, but it will join to the Aston Villa.

The ex of the Seville will join to the cast that does life in the Villa Park in quality of yielded by a campaign. There it will be directed by Unai Emery, the one who knows it well, although they did not coincide in his respective stages in the combined Andalusian. The 'Peasant' had turned into serious candidates to do with the services of the ex of the ACE Nancy, offering to the Barça a simple cession, without option of purchase, doing charge of the wage of the defender (some 16 million gross euros), in addition to agreeing a substantial discount in his economic pretences. It expects that prompt trip to Birmingham to subject to a medical examination before signing his agreement.

The Tottenham never attained to adjust postures with the Barça

The native of Beauvais, with agreement in the Barcelona square until 2026, gathered recently during more than three hours with Deco, the one who informed him on all the management that were carrying out to close entirely the details of this operation. This movement does not dislike of the all to the ex of the Tottenham, the one who already knows what is to play in the Premier League and, although no in this opportunity will not be with the T-shirt of the 'Spurs', keeps on being an alternative that does not dislike him.

Clément Lenglet had in the 'Lilywhites' his main interested, but between the combined Catalan and the londinenses, although already there had been a cession between the two clubs by the Frenchman, did not attain to arrive to an agreement, since the institution chaired by Daniel Levy did not want to assume again the high wage of the player, in addition to having to make other operations to free space in the staff, something that still have not attained.

Arabia never was an option valorable for Lenglet
