Report: Intermediaries have now offered Tottenham man to Jose Mourinho

According to Calciomercato.it, AS Roma are now exploring the possibility of signing Tanguy Ndombele from Tottenham Hotspur.

The report states that Nemanja Matic is edging closer to an exit from Roma and the Italian club are seeking reinforcements in the middle of the park, with Ndombele being one of the players on their radar.

It is said that the midfielder, who spent last season on loan at Napoli, is considered surplus to requirements at Spurs, with some intermediaries said to have put forward his name to the Giallorossi.

Jose Mourinho and Ndombele reunion?

The outlet points out that Jose Mourinho has already worked with the Frenchman at Spurs and suggests that the North London club might be willing to loan the player out with an option to buy.

In addition, it is asserted that Galatasaray have temporarily put their negotiations with Tottenham for Ndombele on hold, which has potentially opened the door for Roma to swoop for the former Lyon man.

However, Calciomercato.it add that the Spurs star is not the only option the Serie A club are eyeing, with PSG’s Renato Sanches and Leandro Paredes also on their shortlist.

Spurs Web Opinion

I have been surprised by the lack of interest from Serie A clubs in Ndombele this summer as the 26-year-old was by no means terrible for Napoli last season.

However, I have no doubt that Tottenham would be keen to sell the midfielder permanently this summer rather than loaning him out again.
