Tottenham Agree £65M Deal For Lyon’s Tanguy Ndombele

Tottenham have agreed to pay a club-record fee of around £65m for Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele, Sky Sports News understands.
The 22-year-old France international will sign a five-year deal and is due to undergo a medical in the next few days.
Lyon reportedly told Tottenham that it would take a bid of £63m to buy Ndombele, who cost them £7m from Amiens last summer.
22 years old, born outside Paris Joined Lyon from Amiens in 2017 – intially on loan Made international debut in October 2018 Named in Ligue 1 team of the year and Champions League squad of 2018/19
Speaking to French publication Telefoot last week, he said: “It’s true that Tottenham are a great team – a big club. They finished fourth in their league, they were finalists in the Champions League.
“They are a big club like many others. Which player would not be interested in a big club?”
Ndombele had been on the radar of several other top European clubs, including Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus.
For Tottenham, Ndombele is the replacement for Dembele who went to China in January. Spurs started scouting for his replacement during the 2017-18 season.
They have used the money they earned from their Champions League final run, meaning any more big transfers will need to be funded by departures.
‘Ndombele is a central midfielder who combines power and athleticism with technical guile. He is adept at breaking up play with tackles and interceptions in front of the defence, but he is also forward-thinking.

http://trk.indoleads.com/5d15bd2a57f95 Liverpool, Manchester United and the £135m gap that is fast disappearing. Leading football finance expert Kieran Maguire explains how the Reds are closing the gap on their greatest rivals   Liverpool supporters do not need reminding what an incredible season it was on the field – a sixth European Cup and a club-record 97 Premier League points are testament to that. Little wonder, then, that there will have been many a glance cast in envy from down the East Lancs Road at Old Trafford. Alex Ferguson may have achieved his famous aim of knocking Liverpool off their perch during his 26-year reign at Manchester United. But the Fergie glory years are a distant memory and it is their greatest rivals, under the expert management of Jurgen Klopp, who are now in the ascendency. Not that it will be much comfort, but United remain a step ahead of Liverpool off the field. For the 2017-18 season, the Red Devil...
