Tottenham are closing in on the signing of Tanguy Ndombele from Lyon.

According to The Sun, the move has progressed to the extent that Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino will give Ndombele a tour of the club.

Ndombele, who is 22, is already a French international and expressed his desire to join Spurs this summer.

He is also wanted by other teams, but it appears Spurs have stolen a march in negotiations with Lyon.

The Frenchman would be a replacement for Mousa Dembele, who moved to China in January.

He is seen as an excellent dribbler who also has an impressive passing range, making him the ideal central midfielder for Pochettino's system.
