Roma and her sports director Monchi expected to sign midfielder Bordeaux Malcolm. Both clubs formally announced a transfer arrangement, and the Brazilian was supposed to go on a medical check-up to Rome, but then Barcelona intervened. The Catalans killed the offer of the "wolves" and got Malcolm.
Lengle, who is familiar with Monchy, does not consider this situation as something shameful.
"I know Monci well, because he invited me to Seville. Transfer Malcolm? Monchy does his job, Barcelona - his, that's all, "- said Lengle.
Lengle became a player in Barcelona after the Catalans paid Sevilla his clausulum - 35.9 million euros.
Seville promised Nancy, the previous Clement Club, 10% in the event of a player's sale, but now refuses to pay. The Spanish club justifies its position by stating that buying a player by clausule is not a sale. Nancy intends to file a complaint with FIFA.
