Since joining Aston Villa on loan in the summer, Clément Lenglet of Barcelona hasn’t been able to get any consistent playing time at Villa Park.
Due to this, AC Milan expressed interest in signing the center back in January. Sport talks about the Serie A team’s interest in the Aston Villa player.
There are rumors that the Catalan club is examining the possibility of another loan move to San Siro. It took until last Friday for Lenglet to make his first Premier League appearance of the year, and that came about because Pau Torres was sidelined by injury. The Frenchman had only been utilized by Unai Emery in the UEFA Conference League before that.
Sport reports that the Villas boss is “counting on him” despite the current circumstances, and the 28-year-old is anticipated to complete his loan stint with the Premier League team.
According to Calciomercato, Milan “concretely explored” the idea of signing Lenglet; however, a deal is still in the works since Lyon has entered the race in the last few hours and Aston Villa is “trying to raise the wall.”
