The Frenchman has played seven times for Spurs so far this season and is gradationally integrating into Antonio Conte’s side. Speaking in an interview with The Times, Lenglet was backing Barcelona to recover from their recent malaise.
“ I ’m not there this time so I do n’t like to speak a lot when I ’m not in that place but Barcelona is a veritably big club. perhaps the last times were n’t really good but in a many times we — they — will get better and fight for everything again. ”
He also explained why it was that he left Barcelona this summer, after four times where he played more frequently than not until last season.
“ I came then for a new experience and I wanted to play further twinkles. When you're 27 times old, you want to be involved. That was my first idea. ”
“ In the contract, there is n’t an option( for Spurs to buy). But we're in October. It’s the morning of the season and we've to stay before allowing about this. I've to be good on the pitch and help the platoon. perhaps if everything is OK, we will speak. But it’s too beforehand. ”
It appears Lenglet must prove his worth again. Once regarded as a solid and dependable option for the Blaugrana, he came part of a culture of weak defending and miscalculations. still playing in a back three should suit Lenglet.

Given there's no option to buy, Barcelona will be hoping Lenglet can win his spot. It seems doubtful that he'd return to Camp Nou coming season but if Lenglet does put in good performances on loan, also they may be suitable to vend him on at a salutary price.
