JAKARTA - New Everton coach Rafael Benitez is reportedly looking to sign defender Clement Lenglet from Barcelona this summer.
Quoted from Antara from Football Espana, Thursday, Benitez's desire to bring in Lenglet will have an impact on the Everton defense.
Benitez has plans to make Lenglet a leader in the Everton defence.
The Toffees currently have a target to be in the European championship next season and in recent years have always been stuck in the middle of the standings.
Should this move eventually happen, Lenglet will join in at centre-back alongside Michael Keane, Ben Godfrey and Mason Holgate.
Lenglet's arrival will also see Colombian defender Yerry Mina lose his place after Benitez judged he did not fit into the system the Spaniard would use.
It is currently believed that last season, Lenglet did not enjoy playing for Barcelona and also did not show his best performance when playing for France at Euro 2020.
This situation makes Lenglet believed to be looking for a new challenge that he can live well and the Barcelona side view the 26-year-old as an asset that can be sold this summer.
Apart from Lenglet, Rafael Benitez is also targeting Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly as an alternative if he ultimately fails to land the French defender.
