Our View
If Ndombele chose to join Serie A over a Premier League rival, it is a good thing for us because the Frenchman is definitely a talented player and him going to another league means there are lesser chance for him to come back and bite us.
The Frenchman’s time at Hotspur Way has been rather miserable with the player struggling to live up to the huge record transfer fee that we spent for him to sign him from Lyon. Albeit just a loan, Spurs will be happy to see the back of the player and will hope that Napoli sign him permanently next summer.
