Although Tottenham Hotspur and Ange Postecoglou now seem desperate for January additions, they may not have had one solution in mind.

That being said, Turkish outlet are now reporting that Tanguy Ndombele could make a mid-season return to North London.

states that Galatasaray are keen to move on both Ndombele and Angelino in January, two players not making a positive impact.

Ndombele’s woes at the club have been well documented, a situation showing no signs of improvement.

Although, there’s to be any clause that allows Ndombele’s loan to be cancelled in January.

Therefore, this report may be suggesting that Galatasaray will seek to negotiate with Spurs over an early termination.

On Tottenham’s part, there seems to be no reason why Postecoglou would push for a January return at all.

Despite those missing with injury, it became apparent in the summer that Ange did not require the Frenchman.

Moreover, since then, Postecoglou has demonstrated his fierce loyalty to his philosophy, even if it doesn’t suit those he has available.

Postecoglou’s Spurs squad is still one in transition, caught between ideas of the past and exciting new project.

And the likes of Eric Dier and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg demonstrate that perfectly.

Two experienced players who could thrive at many Premier League sides, yet they have little use to Ange.

That may be harsh on the latter, who is still proving an important firefighter at times, but he’s clearly now playing a lesser role.

And rather than Tanguy Ndombele returning to Tottenham in January, Postecoglou will want to look forward to an exciting future.

Although the changes have already started, we are still at the very beginning of Postecoglou’s squad overhaul.

Something that makes their start to this season even more impressive.

Spurs fans will now be very excited to see what their manager can achieve in the future with the right personnel.
