According to Paris Saint-Germain news Twitter account Paris United, Tottenham Hotspur have opened talks with Lyon over a potential deal for midfielder Tanguy Ndombele, and Spurs fans have been quick to react to the rumour about the highly-rated France U21 international.

Previous reports this summer have suggested that Mauricio Pochettino could sell Moussa Sissoko, Mousa Dembele and Victor Wanyama in the coming weeks, and if he does he will be looking to bring at least one new midfielder to the club.

6ft powerhouse Ndombele could be an option after a successful season-long loan spell with the Ligue 1 outfit, where he made 50 appearances in all competitions – scoring one goal and providing a further eight assists.

Tottenham supporters, the majority of whom would love their club to sign a goalkeeper from their Premier League rivals this summer, took to social media to give their thoughts on the link, and they are excited by the potential of him arriving in north London.
