Simeone Agrees to Bring in Barcelona Defender Lenglet

According to Spanish media outlet *ElDesmarque*, Simeone has agreed to bring in Barcelona defender Cement Lenglet, and Atletico Madrid is accelerating negotiations.

The report states that Atlético Madrid had previously withdrawn from the deal to sign Lenglet due to his high salary, but negotiations now seem to have resumed, with an agreement possibly being reached in the coming days. Just a few hours ago, it appeared that Lenglet was headed to Villarreal under the management of Marcelino, but this deal has changed since Simeone approved the signing of Lenglet.

This signing would mean that the arrival of Hancko is unlikely. Hancko had pressured Feyenoord, but the deal fell through due to the club's high asking price. This led Atletico Madrid to turn their attention to Lenglet.
