Tottenham flop Ndombele 'fighting a losing battle with Mourinho', says Berbatov

The former Spurs striker says the club's record signing may have to seek a transfer if his situation does not improve

Tanguy Ndombele should move away from Tottenham if he's not given the "chance to play", according to Dimitar Berbatov, who says the midfielder may be "fighting a losing battle" with Jose Mourinho.

Ndombele completed a £54 million ($68m) move to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium from Lyon last summer, becoming the club's most expensive signing of all time in the process.

The Frenchman committed to a six-year contract with the north Londoners, but his first season in the Premier League hasn't gone quite according to plan.
