AS Roma manager Jose Mourinho wants to sign Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Tanguy Ndombele in the January transfer window, according to CM.
The report in the Italian news outlet has claimed that Roma are considering a loan bid for Ndombele.
Mourinho worked with the France international midfielder when he was the manager of Tottenham.
CM have reported that Ndombele’s value is now €30 million (£25.13 million).
Corriere dello Sport have reported that the 25-year-old midfielder’s agents have offered him to Roma.
Could Tanguy Ndombele reunite with Jose Mourinho at Roma?
In our opinion, Tottenham should not sanction a loan move for Ndombele to Mourinho’s Roma.
There is really not much benefit for Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte in such a deal.
Roma might pay Tottenham a small loan fee and cover part of his £120,000-a-week salary.
That is it.
Tottenham are not going to get a transfer fee.
Moreover, we are seeing how COVID-19 is affecting teams, including Tottenham.
Conte would lose a midfielder if he offloads Ndombele on loan.
If Tottenham are to let go of the former Lyon star in the middle of the season, then they should sell him for a good fee and/or get a suitable replacement in.
