Tottenham have signed 22-year-old French midfielder Tanguy Ndombele from Ligue 1 side Lyon for a club record fee.
The French international central midfielder, Ndombele has signed a contract with the Club until 2025.
He started his career at French side Amiens in Ligue 2, before moving to Olympique Lyonnais on loan in August 2017, and permanently in the summer of 2018.
Having represented France at Under-21 level 10 times, he made his senior international debut in October 2018 and has played for his country on six occasions.
Ndombele has signed a deal until 2025 and the fee could rise to €70M with incentives.
Spurs will pay €60M up front and a further €10M in bonuses if certain requirements are met.
Tottenham’s past transfer record was the £42m paid to sign defender Davinson Sanchez from Ajax in August 2017.
A statement from Lyon read: “Lyon thanks Tanguy Ndombele for his involvement with the club since his arrival in 2017 and congratulates him for his professionalism and performances that have enabled him to represent France.
“Today he becomes the record sale in the history of the club, but Tanguy Ndombele will remain one of the greatest talents to have worn our shirt.”
