NAPOLI are set to sign Tottenham outcast Tanguy Ndombele on loan, reports suggest.
Ndombele, 25, has fallen out of favour at Spurs and has been training alone during most of pre-season.
The North Londoners have been looking for potential buyers to offload the midfielder during the summer transfer window.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Napoli are close to signing the France international on loan in a deal worth almost €1million (£850,000).
Romano claims Tottenham have accepted the Italian giant’s proposal, which also includes a €30m (£25m) buy-out option.

“Final details being sorted on player side then it will be done.
“Deal revealed on day August 9, now almost done.”

Ndombele joined Tottenham from Lyon in 2019 following a record-breaking £63m deal.
However, the 25-year-old has since been struggling at Spurs, which is why he was sent back on loan to Lyon during the second half of last season.
The Frenchman has amassed a total of five goals and 18 assists in 111 appearances across all competitions in North London.
