Report: Wages of Tanguy Ndombele prevent two Serie A clubs from pursuing the Spurs midfielder

Tottenham Hotspur has a couple of weeks to do their best to offload midfielder Tanguy Ndombele. The 25-year-old had some supporters boo him during Spurs’ FA Cup match against Morecambe FC. 

Furthermore, he didn’t appear in the squad for the EFL Cup second-leg match versus Chelsea. Ndombele has reportedly expressed his desire to depart, and it seems the north London club wants to accommodate him. 

According to Corriere dello Sport (via Sports Witness), AS Roma has indeed reached out to attempt a possible transfer to Rome, but the whole operation would be ‘difficult.’

Ndombele’s wages have always been a sticking point for any team looking to take on the player as he makes about €10-million, €5-million of which would need to be taken on by the Serie A club.

Calciomercato (via Sport Witness) has also cited Napoli on the list of potential destinations. However, much like Roma, the midfielder’s wages are again out of reach for the Serie A club.
