Barca considering using Lenglet in Neymar deal?

Barcelona have reportedly offered defender Clement Lenglet to Paris Saint-Germain as part of a cash-plus-player offer for Neymar.

The La Liga champions are eager to add Neymar to their squad this summer and are believed to be working on financing a deal.

PSG's huge asking price has left Barca unable to offer a straight cash sum, but Sport suggests that they will offer one of their first-team squad members as a makeweight.

Ousmane Dembele and Philippe Coutinho have both been linked with moves in the opposite direction, though it is said to be Lenglet who has been offered in exchange.

The 24-year-old centre-back is liked by PSG, it is claimed, and that is a position boss Thomas Tuchel is looking to further strengthen.

Lenglet started 22 La Liga matches for Barcelona last season.
