According to a report from the Daily Star, Barcelona are keen on landing Spurs midfielder, Tanguy Ndombele at the end of the season.

Things have not gone well at all for Ndombele in recent months. The Frenchman has been singled out for criticism on a number of occasions. Jose Mourinho, too, has been left unimpressed with what he has seen from his midfielder.

And just this week, Mourinho broke social distancing rules to controversially pull Ndombele in for a personal training session. It’s a move that hasn’t gone down well with the midfielder.

However, it seems that La Liga giants, Barcelona, could offer Ndombele a timely route out of north London.

It is claimed that Barca are interested in landing the 23-year-old. Despite costing Spurs a record 60m Euros (BBC) just last summer, it already appears the pressure is on for Ndombele.

Spurs, of course, would look to recoup their money from Barcelona in any deal.

Ndombele started the season in fine fashion with a goal on his debut. However, he’s since been in and out of the first XI sporadically and could well force a move, according to latest reports.

There’s clearly a talented player in there with Ndombele. A club doesn’t simply pay over £50m for someone without them having a bit about them.

But he hasn’t shown it for Spurs. Furthermore, how that form warrants a move to Barcelona is a bit of a strange one.

The Catalan giants are one of, if not the, best sides in the worlds. Signing someone who has struggled so much like Ndombele makes little sense at first glance.

However, you never know in football. Spurs are not getting the best from their man and if they can indeed cash in now, then Jose Mourinho might just approve a deal.
