Tanguy Ndombele believes he can still find happiness at Tottenham despite going through an unsettled stint at the club and will evaluate his position over the course of pre-season.
Ndombele became Spurs’ record signing in 2019 after joining from Lyon but has struggled to progress into the midfielder many tipped him to be.
The 25-year-old rejoined the French side on loan in January after failing to work his way into Antonio Conte’s thoughts, although his return did not go to plan.
Ndombele featured inconsistently for Lyon as they were knocked out of the Europa League quarter-finals by West Ham before missing out on European football altogether with an eighth-place finish in Ligue 1.
But having since returned to parent club Tottenham and been involved in pre-season training, Ndombele feels all is not lost in North London and he can still find a way to be content at the club.
He told Le Media Carre (via SportWitness): “Yes, I think it’s possible to be happy at Tottenham. Regardless of where you can go, you can be happy or unhappy.
“We’ll see how things go during pre-season. I’m not putting any more pressure on myself than that.”
Asked about what the future holds for him beyond the summer, he added: “I think that question… (laughs) is rather complicated and personal at the same time, but what I want is to be happy, take pleasure in what I do, play, win, that’s all I want.”
Spurs Web Opinion
If Ndombele puts in a good pre-season and works his way into Conte’s plans, there is no reason why he can’t have a future at Tottenham.
He is an expensive asset that hasn’t managed to fulfil his true potential really and Spurs will be wary of that, but it would be a shame to see such a talented player go to waste.
