Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tanguy Ndombele has been linked to the move away from the club this summer.
According to a report from Football London, the newly appointed Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is now prepared to sanction the departure of the 26-year-old midfielder because of his attitude issues.
The 26-year-old spent the last season on loan at Napoli and he was a part of their title-winning squad. Many would have expected him to get a chance under the new manager this season but the Frenchman has failed to impress the new manager during pre-season.
The Australian is now ready to sanction the departure of the £55 million midfielder before the window closes.
Ndombele was regarded as a world-class talent when he joined Tottenham and he was expected to develop into a top-class player. However, things have not gone according to plan and he has struggled to establish himself as a regular starter for Tottenham under multiple managers.
Perhaps a permanent move away from the north London club would be ideal for all parties.
Tottenham clearly do not value him as a key player anymore and the 26-year-old will be desperate to get his career back on track. A permanent exit would be ideal for all parties and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham can find the club willing to pay a substantial amount of money for him.
The Frenchman needs to play regularly at the state of his career and he is unlikely to get those opportunities at Tottenham. The 26-year-old cannot afford to sit on the bench at the London club for a whole season.
It is fair to assume that Tottenham will not be able to recoup the £55 million they paid for him and they will have to cut their losses on the player. Napoli recently submitted a €20 million offer for the player.
Ndombele is still a top talent who could be a key player for most clubs if he can sort out his attitude issues. It remains to be seen how the situation unfolds in the remaining days of the transfer window.
If I were to see that guy in a Tottenham shirt again I would throw up.
