Report: Unnamed Spanish club in talks with Tottenham for midfielder

Tottenham Hotspur will be attempting to offload some players who have no future in north London, and one of them is Tanguy Ndombele, who left on a loan deal to Olympique Lyonnais, but the French club won’t be keeping the player. 

As a result, the midfielder will be returning to Spurs, but they hope to find a permanent deal to move on from the France international this summer. According to Telefoot’s Julien Maynard, an unnamed Spanish club has begun discussions with Tottenham over the 25-year-old.

Nonetheless, the French journalist adds that a departure for Ndombele is likely but doesn’t specify whether it would be on a permanent deal or if another loan will be in order. 

The midfielder has a contract with Spurs until 2025, so it will take some selling on Spurs’ part to secure a permanent agreement considering his wages. Nonetheless, at this point, the north London club might take whatever they can to not have him around next season. 

At Lyon, Ndombele made 11 appearances where he only recorded two assists for the Ligue 1 side.
