Barcelona defender Clement Lenglet: I could've joined Juventus

Barcelona defender Clement Lenglet admits he could've joined Juventus.

Lenglet left Sevilla last summer for Barca.

“I was at Nancy and I'd only played three months in the French second division when Juventus came in to sign me," he told Goal.com.

“However I was 18 and I only had a few months of professional football behind me. With the defence Juventus had back then, I wouldn't have played or developed,

“it wasn't a good time to leave my club. I'm very happy with the decision I made because I joined a very big club anyway."
