Ndombele currently plays for Lyon in Ligue 1. The midfielder is of incredible physical stature and has incredible dribbling ability, akin to ex-Spurs midfield maestro Moussa Dembele. His raw power, directness and brilliant dribbling skills make him look similar to Paul Pogba. But Ndombele is defensively much more astute.

His ability to break the play, his interceptions and distribution of the ball make him vital for Lyon. Ndombele could fit easily into this Spurs side playing in a midfield two or three. He is definitely able to play in a midfield three, playing as a deep-lying midfielder, and dictating the tempo of the game.

The only concern with him is whether he will be able to make a step up from Ligue 1 to the Premier League. Ndombele has been linked to many clubs and he may not come cheaply for the Lillywhites.
