Tanguy Ndombele Tottenham reunion possibility emerges after summer transfer move finalised

Tanguy Ndombele will be playing his football for Nice from the 2024/25 season onwards after his time at Tottenham officially came to an end last Sunday

Tanguy Ndombele would only be without a football club for a matter of days after officially departing Tottenham last Sunday. Initially set to be a Spurs player until the summer of 2025 due to the six-year contract he signed after joining from Lyon in July 2019, the Lilywhites and Nodombele, agreed to the mutual termination of his conclusion of his Galatasaray loan spell.

Amid question marks over his next move after underwhelming loan spells with the Turkish giants as well as former club Lyon and Napoli, the 27-year-old has returned to his native France on a permanent basis. On Thursday evening it was confirmed that the midfielder will be playing his football for Ligue 1 side Nice from the 2024/25 season onwards after penning a two-year contract in the South of France.

After linking up with Franck Haise’s team for the upcoming campaign, Ndombele, speaking to the club’s official website, said: “I’m very happy that everything was wrapped up quickly, because it’s important to start the pre-season with the squad. As soon as I was presented with the Nice project, I didn’t hesitate.

“I’m happy and proud to join The Gym. There are great collective ambitions and I have my own challenges to overcome. The team finished fifth and will play in the Europa League. I can’t wait to get to work so that we can build something great together.”

Ndombele nice transfer does raise possibility of an immediate Tottenham reunion. as both teams will be competing in next season’s Europa League. Previously split into groups of four during the group stage, the Europa League will look rather different from September with 36 teams playing in a newly-formed league phase and playing eight games at that stage of the competition.

As teams will be split into four pots of nine and then go on to be drawn against two sides from each pot in order to determine the eight fixtures, there is every chance Ndombele and Nice could be paired against Spurs. That will all become clear when the draw for the league phase is made on Friday, August 30.
