Recently, Cl\u00e9ment Lenglet also took the same path, and has managed to surprise with the good performances he has completed, and which have caused Enrique Cerezo to have already started talks with Joan Laporta and Deco to sign him as a property. But it is not the only objective that has been set at the Camp Nou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because he is also very attentive to the situation of Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez , who is being closely monitored, with the intention of taking advantage of his lack of prominence in Hans-Dieter Flick&#8217;s plans. With Xavi Hern\u00e1ndez he had a brutal irruption into the first team, becoming a regular starter, and completed a simply exceptional first campaign in the elite, which served to get him called up to the European Championship and the Olympic Games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, things have changed since &#8216;Hansi&#8217; took control of Bar\u00e7a, and he has had to settle for playing only in unimportant matches, or as a substitute. A situation that has not pleased the Spanish international, who would have practically decided to pack his bags if things continue as they have so far. Because he knows that his progression is in danger of being completely paralyzed if there is no change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the great obsession that the &#8217;16&#8217; has is to play in the next World Cup, which will be held in 2026 in Mexico, Canada and the United States. And it is difficult for him to be on Luis de la Fuente&#8217;s final list again, as reflected by the fact that he was left out of the last call-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Simeone contacts Ferm\u00edn<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ferm\u00edn wants to continue and succeed at Bar\u00e7a, but he values \u200b\u200bthe idea of \u200b\u200blanding in a team where he can be one of the great figures. And Simeone would be delighted to have him at his disposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Atleti will try their luck, although they will have significant competition, and Laporta and Deco will not settle for less than 50 million euros to open the doors for him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: El Nacional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atletico Madrid are trying to &#8216;fish&#8217; Bar\u00e7a again, as they did in the past, with a series of players who were not comfortable with their situation, and ended up putting themselves under the orders of Diego Pablo Simeone.
