1 Tonguy N'Dombele in action for Lyon

Tottenham are tracking Lyon midfielder Tanguy N’Dombele, according to reports in his native France.

The 21-year-old spent the past season on loan at Lyon, who recently activated the £7m buyout clause to sign him permanently from Amiens.

His performances over the past nine months have been so impressive that even French champions Paris Saint-Germain were in talks about a potential summer move.

And now, according to L’Equipe, Spurs are also keeping close tabs on the Longjumeau-born central midfielder.

Lyon insist they do not want to sell him having only just signed him outright but that stance may change should a club offer them a quick and hefty profit on their recent outlay.

Having made a total of just three Ligue 1 appearances before this season started, he really announced himself as a potential star of the future with 32 outings for Lyon this term, helping them to a third-place finish.
