OPINION
Tottenham are now being heralded as ‘favourites’ to land one of the signings of the summer according to reliable journalist Miguel Delaney. In his report in The Independent, he claimed that Mauricio Pochettino is expected to convince Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele to snub interest from the likes of Man United and Juventus and join Spurs. And Tottenham’s rivals for one of the most sought after players in the world are said to acknowledge that Tottenham are now favourites to make a real statement signing. As you can imagine, the news, along with the Mirror claiming they’re going to smash their transfer record for him, has got Tottenham fans very excited. They know the central midfield position is the one area they have to improve after Mousa Dembele left for China last January. And Ndombele has been their number one target for the position ever since. Pochettino is very keen on what is said to be a £60million+ signing and that would smash their current transfer record of £40million. After two windows without buying anyone, you can understand why Spurs fans are close to meltdown over this one.
Here are the best reactions from Tottenham fans:

Tottenham going big for Ndombele would be their Van Dijk moment! This was a transformative £75 million move for Virgil van Dijk, followed by a £66 million move for goalkeeper Alisson. Instantly they became a team with the best defence in the Premier League.. ???? #COYS #THFC pic.twitter.com/iXkeIVfnE0

Levy won’t sleep tonight if he’s opened his wallet. That thing has been on time lock.

This guy is an absolute baller, not quite sure what would get my attention most, us signing a player of this magnitude or the thought of boris johnson running our country ?

Incase you are wondering what all the hype is about, take a look at Tottenham Hotspur target Tanguy Ndombele in action.
This man would walk into the Spurs midfield and instantly improve us, a beast in the making that would take us forward. ?#THFC #COYSpic.twitter.com/XNRIG0GsUG
