Who is Tanguy Ndombele?

Ndombele spent the 2018-18 season on loan at Lyon from Amiens.

Last season Ndombele played 50 matches for Lyon. He scored one goal in the Europa League, while he chipped in with seven assists in all competitions.

Ndombele’s contract at Amiens expires in 2020.

Man United & Man City

Paris United report that Lyon have an €8 million option to buy Ndombele.

Tottenham and Juventus have reportedly opened talks with the youngster as those clubs aim to sign the midfielder this summer.

Paris United also link Manchesters United and City with the French U21 international.

Man United are expected to make a move for Ndombele, while Man City are also lurking in the background.

Yet it would be no surprise the Manchester clubs missed out of the Frenchman.

Man United seem to have targeted Fred as their number one midfield target this summer.

As for Man City, the Sky Blues appear to be on the verge of landing Italian international Jorginho from Napoli.
