Lyon Don't Want To Sell Ndombele To Spurs

Tangay-Ndombele


Lyon President Jean-Michel Aulas wants a bidding war for his prize midfielder Tangay Ndombele but hopes that he stays in France and signs for PSG.

"I am in negotiations with the biggest European clubs and I contacted PSG myself to tell them that if they wanted not to feel left out on players with this type of talent, that they needed to position themselves. 
"If they are in agreement to match the two or three offers that we have already received and Tanguy chooses them, we will not oppose the deal. On the contrary, it would even be good if he went to PSG. The most talented French players must be in the best French clubs. 
"PSG, Marseille, Lyon, St Étienne or even Rennes need to come together to create an ecosystem that serves French football.”
“That is my biggest desire. PSG are the ones who have the means and can make alternative propositions to the big European clubs. They win considerably to use French clubs more when they make their purchases. PSG’s money would be used for French clubs like I did several years ago.”
The word from France is that Tangay Ndombele is 'enthralled' with Spurs offer and this is why the French press are reporting Tottenham to be in pole position to capture his signature this summer. Mauricio Pochettino is a big admirer of the player and having tried to sign him last summer is keen to get his man.

Juventus have been following Ndombele but they have now agreed personal terms with Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinković-Savić. PSG are closing in on Allen from Napoli which smooths the path for Spurs.

  1. I have to admit that I like the way Aulas thinks. He's trying to better and serve French football. Good for him.

    In this case I hope he fails as I believe Ndombele would make a fine addition to Spurs' squad, but respect his ideas.

    COYS!!
