Sevilla 'working on' Lenglet's future amid Barcelona links

By published

Clement Lenglet has reportedly attracted interest from Barcelona, but Sevilla say they have no knowledge of that and aim to keep their star.

Sevilla are working to ensure Clement Lenglet does not depart for reported suitors Barcelona, according to president Jose Castro.

Lenglet has impressed at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan since signing from Nancy in January 2017, leading to rumours that LaLiga title favourites Barca could be set to make a move for the centre-back.

The 22-year-old has previously insisted he is happy at Sevilla and senior club officials are clear in their intent to keep the Frenchman.

"We are working on [Clement's future] and on some other players," said Castro, as reported by Sport. "These are internal conversations and we hope that they will end well.

"We have no record of any interest in him."
