Tottenham transfer news: Tanguy Ndombele tipped to sign for PSG after ‘ridiculous’ development – insider
Tottenham could sell Tanguy Ndombele to PSG in the summer if he impresses while on loan at Lyon.
That is according to Spurs insider John Wenham, who regularly breaks news about the club on his Lilywhite Rose social media channels.
Ndombele, 25, joined Lyon for the rest of the season on Monday (31 January).
In the weeks leading up to the transfer, the midfielder had been training alone and was booed off the pitch during his side’s FA Cup clash against Morecambe on 9 January.
After a potential loan move to PSG fell through earlier in January, Wenham claims the French giants could return for Ndombele on a permanent basis this summer.
“Ndombele arrived with much fanfare,” Wenham told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.
“I was excited. When he joined I went on YouTube and watched the full 90 minutes of games he played against Man City and Barcelona.
“I was genuinely excited and I thought he would be a transformative transfer.
“He had the odd moment of magic in him but four managers couldn’t get anything out of him.
“There are always excuses or some reason why he hasn’t been playing well.
“When that move to PSG fell through I was worried, to be honest with you.
“There is the option for Lyon to buy him but the fee is more than we paid for him which is ridiculous, that’s just not going to happen.
“But, if he can go to Lyon and play well it wouldn’t surprise me if PSG came back in for him in the summer as they sort their own squad out.
“It’s always good for PSG to have high-profile French players on the books and it looks like Mbappe is leaving.”
