Tottenham Manager Jose Mourinho Denies Tanguy Ndombele Rift Reports by Johndot: 10:42am On Jun 24, 2020 |
Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has denied any rift between himself and club-record signing Tanguy Ndombele. Reports from France on Tuesday night claimed the relationship between the two had broken down completely, with Ndombele telling the Spurs manager that he no longer wanted to play for him. Before football's shutdown, Mourinho had singled Ndombele out over his performances and fitness before praising the midfielder's commitment in training as the Premier League worked towards a return. Ndombele has not played a single minute in the two games since the resumption of the Premier League. The midfielder and Mourinho were caught breaching lockdown in April when they were spotted training on Hadley Common, though Mourinho said last week that he was helping Ndombele fix the Wifi on his GPS. Reacting to the reports, Mourinhio said: "No [there is no problem]. "On the bench was Tanguy, [Ryan] Sessegnon, Toby [Alderweireld], [Jan] Vertonghen, Gedson [Fernandes] and they didn't play. That's football. For me there's nothing. I had attacking players on the bench, [Erik] Lamela and [Steven] Bergwijn. "Two great players to bring on and then Winks to give us more consistency. "This situation of the five changes, some people maybe think that you have to use all five changes. You don't have to do it. You have the chances to do it. "I felt that the team was fine. I never believed that 2-0 was a completely safe result because they were trying everything and one goal could change the state of mind and give them the motivation in the final minutes so I decided to keep the team stable and three changes was enough. "You know, it's not just him. I try to do the best for my team. I cannot start the game with 12 or 13 players, I try to do the best for the team. "Sometimes I apologise to my players that are not my first choice because I feel their work in training deserves something more than I give but I have to do my job the best I can and I felt for these two matches I didn't need him." https://www.standard.co.uk/topic/tanguy-ndombele
