Napoli and Villarreal make loan enquiries for Tottenham midfielder Tanguy Ndombele... with Antonio Conte banishing the £65m flop from training as he tries to offload the French international

Tottenham have received enquiries from Napoli and Villarreal over a loan deal for midfielder Tanguy Ndombele.

Ndombele joined the north London side for a club-record £65million in the summer of 2019 from Lyon, but failed to deliver the consistency and quality promised by his fee.

After struggling to impress under Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte, the French international spent the second half of the 2021-22 season on loan at former club Lyon, and now looks set for a further spell away from the club.

Outcasts Ndombele, Sergio Reguilon, Harry Winks and Giovani Lo Celso could all leave Spurs this summer and have been excluded from Conte’s first team training sessions.
