Jose Mourinho reveals the three positions he envisages Ndombele playing

Tottenham Hotspur went out and broke their transfer record in the summer to sign Tanguy Ndombele from Lyon after the Frenchman impressed during the 2018/19 campaign.

Not only did the midfielder stand out in Ligue 1, but he also shone in the Champions League consistently against the likes of Manchester City.

However, it has been a relatively stop-start Spurs beginning for the player, as his start to the season has been plagued with injury.

Ndombele missed a couple of weeks at the start of the campaign under Mauricio Pochettino, before securing a regular spot in the starting line-up.

The Frenchman then found himself back on the bench after Jose Mourinho took over the squad, before he picked up a groin injury.

Ndombele is finally back in training and will now be looking to force his way back into the first-team under a new head coach.

In his press conference today, Mourinho revealed that he can see Ndombele playing three positions, a number six role, a number eight role, and as a double pivot.
