Olympique Lyon president Jean Michel Aulas is delighted to be counting on Tanguy Ndombele.

The midfielder has rejoined OL from Tottenham on-loan with a €65m option to buy.

Aulas said: "I am very happy that he came back, with Bruno Cheyrou and Vincent Ponsot at the helm, because we had to discuss with the president of Tottenham who had bought him very expensively.

"He participated in the commitment to return by investing in himself personally."

On keeping Ndombele, Aulas added: "We have to miss a few games, it's only the beginning… but if we win the Europa League, everything will be possible."
