Tanguy Ndombele has hailed Tottenham as a “big club” and admitted he is interested in signing for Mauricio Pochettino.
Spurs have been in talks with Lyon over a deal for the France midfielder, Sky Sports News understands, but he is also of interest to other clubs including Juventus.
Speaking to French publication Telefoot, 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?”

However, according to Sky in Italy, Spurs have made forward steps for a player that has also been watched by both Manchester clubs this season.
