Tanguy Ndombele has revealed the reasons he snubbed other major European sides in favour of Tottenham, listing manager Mauricio Pochettino as one of the key factors in his decision making.
The French midfielder became Spurs' record signing when he joined from Lyon for a fee of €60m plus €10m in bonuses, penning a long-term deal amid strong interest from the likes of Manchester United, Juventus and Barcelona.
Speaking to L'Equipe about his move, the 22-year-old insisted that he made the right choice by choosing Tottenham, with the club's manager earning high praise from the midfielder and proving a key figure as he opted for north London.
