‘Tanguy’s first season has not been easy but I’ve told him to stay calm, be patient and keep working': Moussa Sissoko has faith in Ndombele after tough first season at Tottenham

Moussa Sissoko knows better than anyone how difficult life at Tottenham is for Tanguy Ndombele.

Midfielder Ndombele has endured a torrid start to life at Spurs following his £65million move from Lyon last summer. Injuries and a change in manager have left the 23-year-old stuck on the sidelines.

Ndombele has started only six games under Spurs manager Jose Mourinho and was reduced to a cameo off the bench in the defeat to Sheffield United that all but ended any hope of a top-four finish heading into their game against Everton on Monday.
