Tanguy Ndombele believes he will be fit for France by Sunday
Tottenham midfielder Tanguy Ndombele was substituted at half-time during in the 1-1 draw against Sheffield United.
Mauricio Pochettino confirmed that the Frenchman was struggling with an issue, and has to be subbed out.
However, Ndombele joined his international teammates ahead of the two-week break. The midfielder was quoted by L’Equipe suggesting that the problem wasn’t serious and he should be back soon (h/t Football.london):
“I had tests that said there was nothing serious, it was more fatigue.
“What is certain is that I am fit for Sunday. Thursday may be a little early, I don’t think I’ll be 100%.”
France manager Didier Deschamps also claimed the problem would be “resolved within 48 hours” and didn’t need to call-up someone else.
Ndombele doing well in debut season
Tottenham’s campaign has been far from great as we dropped points again. We have gone five Premier League matches without a win and sit 11 points behind fourth-placed Manchester City after just 12 games.
Ndombele has looked in good touch since joining in the summer from Lyon. The 22-year-old has two goals and three assists so far in the campaign too.
We need him to stay fit for long as there are some big games coming up. Spurs travel to West Ham after the international break and then face Olympiakos, Bournemouth and Manchester United in the next two weeks.
