Over the weekend, we brought you an update from L’Equipe that explained Tanguy Ndombele was shocked when José Mourinho arrived at his house to call the Tottenham midfielder out for training during the confinement period.
Reports in England are claiming the 23-year-old would prefer to join Barcelona, if he decides to leave the north London club.
Sport have relayed claims made in France and England about Ndombele and then they provide their own update on this case.
Barca are planning to rejuvenate their squad for next season and they like Ndombele’s profile ‘very much’. The presence of French players at the club could play an important role in convincing him to join them.
It’s claimed the Covid-19 crisis changes the dynamics as both Ndombele and his environment are aware there cannot be any development unless and until the ‘details of the next transfer window are known’.
Only after this, the Spurs man will make a decision on his future at the Premier League club.
Another problem for Barcelona would be Jose Mourinho, who has a ‘special kind of affection’ for the Catalan, meaning he doesn’t like them. Therefore he’d make everything as difficult as possible.
