Spurs club-record signing has been placed into quarantine for 14 days and is bound to be unavailable for selection when Jose Mourinho’s side kick off the 2020-21 Premier League campaign against Everton on September 12.
Ndombele is wanted by Inter Milan this summer, and while Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy isn’t keen on selling him a year after signing him in a £63 million deal, the Serie A giants aren’t giving up in their pursuit of the midfielder.
