Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele has admitted he is interested in a move to ‘big club’ Tottenham amid reports linking him with the north London outfit.
Mauricio Pochettino wants the France international and the club will prioritise him before pursuing other deals, though they face competition from Juventus and Manchester United.
The 22-year-old was also a target for Manchester City before they switched their attention to Atletico Madrid’s Rodri.

And speaking to Telefoot, Ndombele has admitted he would find it hard to resist a move to Spurs.
He said: “It’s true that Tottenham are a great team – a big club. They finished fourth in their league, they were finalists in the Champions League.
“They are a big club like many others. Which player would not be interested in a big club?”
Talks between Spurs and the Ligue 1 side are believed to be in the primary stages and a deal is not close to being agreed.
However, according to Sky in Italy, the Tottenham hierarchy have expressed the most interest in the Frenchman and they are the clear frontrunners for his signature.
