Tanguy Ndombele could be set for a return to Serie A after Tottenham reached an agreement with Genoa for a season-long loan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, according to Fabrizio Romano, the newly-promoted side will have their work cut out convincing a player who starred for last season’s champions Napoli.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 26-year-old has struggled to settle in England following his 2019 arrival from Lyon, failing to show the level of consistency that prompted Spurs to shell out a club-record \u00a365million fee.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ndombele’s loan return to Lyon was largely uninspiring, but his role in Napoli’s first title win in 33 years teased a return to the Tottenham fold.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But following the arrival of new boss Ange Postecoglou, the French international appears to be out of the reckoning once again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tottenham have reportedly reached an agreement with Genoa for the 26-year-old midfielder<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ange Postecoglou is still looking to offload a raft of first team stars before the window closes\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ndombele made 40 appearances in all competitions\u00a0 for Napoli last term in a fine loan spell\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genoa, who made an immediate return to the top-flight after their relegation in 2022, are reportedly trying to convince Ndombele of their project under World Cup winner Alberto\u00a0Gilardino.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Spurs are keen to resolve the situation before what is shaping up to be a busy transfer deadline for the club.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The likes of ex-Spurs captain Hugo Lloris, Djed Spence, Eric Dier, Japhet Tanganga and Sergio Reguilon are all expected to depart before Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
None have featured for the club this term, mostly recently in Tuesday night’s second round Carabao Cup defeat to Fulham.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
