Fabrizio Romano: Incredible £200k/week Tottenham player will leave Spurs this summer
Tottenham Hotspur is poised to part ways with one of their highest earners this summer, as confirmed by transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano, signaling an imminent departure from north London.
Under the helm of Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham has undergone a revitalization, showcasing a distinctive style of football that contrasts with past managerial tactics.
However, remnants of previous regimes linger, prompting an anticipated summer overhaul in both signings and departures to align the squad with Postecoglou’s vision.
Confirming the departure, Romano revealed that Tottenham is prepared to offload Tanguy Ndombele permanently this summer. Despite his hefty £63 million arrival in 2019, Ndombele failed to make a significant impact and faced criticisms regarding his work ethic.
Having spent the last two and a half years on loan at Lyon, Napoli, and Galatasaray, Ndombele struggled to replicate his pre-Tottenham form, accruing minimal game time and failing to impress during his loan spells.
| Ndombele’s awful Tottenham career | |
|---|---|
| Appearances | 91 |
| Goals | 10 |
| Assists | 9 |
| Minutes | 5,161 |
| Cost per minute | £12,206 |
| Managers played under at Spurs | 5 |
With just four starts and 449 minutes played this season at Galatasaray, Ndombele’s future remains uncertain, especially with reports of a rift with the manager, dampening the likelihood of a permanent move.
Returning to Tottenham this summer with a year remaining on his lucrative £200,000-per-week contract, Ndombele’s departure seems inevitable, much to the relief of Spurs fans.
Speaking highly of Ndombele’s abilities, fellow midfielder Declan Rice lauded him as one of the toughest opponents he faced during his time at West Ham United.
Despite acknowledgment of Ndombele’s talent, his tenure at Tottenham failed to showcase his full potential, prompting speculation of a beneficial parting of ways this summer.ⁿ
