Tottenham offered midfielder Tanguy Ndombele to AC Milan as a potential replacement for Franck Kessie but the response was not so enthusiastic, a report claims.
According to what is being reported by il Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews), the Rossoneri management are aware that by losing Kessie at no cost, they will have to go in search of reinforcements for the midfield department.
One of the clubs that have been repeatedly linked with a move for the Ivorian is Spurs, and the paper mentioned that they once again (implying they have done so before) offered up French Tanguy Ndombele to the Rossoneri.
However, Milan responded in a way that suggested they were not particularly keen on the 25-year-old, with Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara seemingly warming more to other profiles. Ndombele joined Spurs from Lyon in a deal worth €62m plus €10m in potential bonuses (as per Wikipedia) but they have not managed to get the best out of him.

Yes!!!!!!
Typical levi bs. We get a chance at a top performer and levi wants to offer a current all-time flop ‘ndombele’ as a ‘SWAP’. Good Grief…… What a pathetic effort……..
Ndombele earns an average wage of 10,4 mil gbp a year at tottenham which equates 12,43 mil euros so does this news really sounds like it being even a remote possibility when we are not willing to pay kessie 7-8 mil or whatever he is currently demanding ? i dont think so.
Anyways im sure milan has hundreds of players scouted and propably him included but unless he is willing to accept a huge financial loss there is next to no chance of him joining us.
We could make them pay for 70% of the wage if we negotiate right.
wildly speculative because if he were to stay beyond this season i can pretty much guarantee you that tottenham wont pay 70% of his wages and then whats the point of making a swap which would be a gamble because we already know what kessie has to offer this squad but ndombele might take some adjustment time to fit in and if we cant afford his wages after this season then no point in it.
I don’t think any of the people who commented have read the article properly, there’s no swap he’s been offered to Milan as they are losing kessie on a bosman 🤦🏾
