How bad is Lenglet tho', bit hard to judge given Xavi hasn't really fancied him resulting in limited minutes.
football.london understands that others on the Italian's Tottenham centre-back wishlist include Villarreal's Pau Torres, England international and Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi, Torino's Gleison Bremer and Barcelona's Clement Lenglet.
People have short memories. Lenglet was great at Sevilla and good for a season or so at Barca until they hit their troubles. Defenders always take the brunt of the criticism when a teams form drops. He's still young and if Conte thinks he can get him back to his best we should be happy.Lenglet is not worse than Davies, fuck me.
Having CB options of Romero, Bastoni, Lenglet, Dier, Davies/Sanchez would put us in a great position IMO.
2 cases in point very close to home being Davies and Dier.People have short memories. Lenglet was great at Sevilla and good for a season or so at Barca until they hit their troubles. Defenders always take the brunt of the criticism when a teams form drops. He's still young and if Conte thinks he can get him back to his best we should be happy.
Not a huge amount new in there, but there's a (what I think is new) link to Guehi and backing up of interest in Lenglet
Thank God I don’t do Twitter!
There is a big month ahead.
Team is off to South Korea for a summer tour in a month.
Players will be back for medicals just prior.
Let’s see who is on the plane to South Korea
Read enough glowing reports on Lo Celso and Ndombele and enough negative stuff on Kulusevski hefore he came to know it's best to wait and see.
Lenglet is 100% worse than Davies. People on here have a fetish on here for players from foreign leagues until they arrive and prove to be worse than/no noticeable upgrade on our current options (e.g Emerson). Davies has been brilliant for us in the LCB role. He's great on the ball and a good box defender. Lenglet is a clown.Lenglet is not worse than Davies, fuck me.

@thfc_nia @SpursITKhub @THFCunseen @thfcsxn @KieranN17_ Bastoni is no longer about financials. It’s purely his choice. Tottenham ready to go with finances. If he doesn’t want to come then we will move on.
That’s good.

After internationals I would imagine.That’s good.
Let’s hope we get a resolution either way soon ?
I imagine Paratici has given him/Inter a deadline, if nothing chances, we will simply just get on with it
