Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele arrived at Tottenham's training ground on Tuesday to undergo a medical ahead of a club-record £65m transfer.

Ndombele will sign a five-year deal with an option for a sixth year, with the deal expected to be concluded later on Tuesday.

His medical began on Tuesday morning at a north London hospital before arriving at Spurs' Enfield training base.

  • Joined Lyon from Amiens in 2017 - intially on loan
  • Made international debut in October 2018

Speaking to French publication Telefoot in June, he said: "It's true that Tottenham are a great team - a big club. They finished fourth in their league, they were finalists in the Champions League.

"They are a big club like many others. Which player would not be interested in a big club?"
