Clement Lenglet and Samuel Umtiti appear close to sealing exits from Barcelona after missing the start of the team’s pre-season.
Coach Xavi has given permission for several players, including the duo, to stay away and try to sort out their futures ahead of the new campaign.
Lenglet is reportedly in London for a medical with Tottenham Hotspur and is closing in on a season-long loan with the Premier League side.
Tottenham will pay 85% of Lenglet’s wages for next season, with Barca paying the rest, and there’ll be a purchase option thought to be around €10m in the deal, according to Marca.
