Kane, Son full of paise for Spurs pal Ndombele

Tanguy Ndombele has already made a big impression on his new Tottenham teammates.

Ndombele has had an immediate impact, according to team-mates Harry Kane and Son Heung-Min.

"He's been great," said Kane. "He intercepted that ball very well and put that ball through to Lucas (for Tottenham's second). That's a strength of his - playing that through ball, that forward pass.

"That's maybe something we've missed over the last year or so. That really decisive pass in the final third. He looks like he can do that. With any player who comes in, he's still learning – how we play and the way we want him to play, and the manager wants him to play. That's all we can ask for."

Son also said, "He's a funny guy. I've tried to speak to him, we understand very, very good. I can't wait to play together. He's an unbelievable player we signed. He needs time, the players next to him have to help."
