Manchester City, Manchester United 'to do battle for Tanguy Ndombele'

Manchester City and Manchester United are reportedly ready to do battle in the race to sign Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele.

Manchester City and Manchester United have reportedly identified Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele as a potential summer signing.

Ndombele has emerged as one of the top prospects in European football, and the France international has made a total of 29 appearances in all competitions this season.

However, the 22-year-old's form will result in Lyon receiving interest in the player ahead of next season, and according to Le10Sport, both Manchester clubs intend to strengthen their midfield.

The report suggests that any interested team will have to pay in excess of £70m to push through a deal during the summer.

Ndombele still has just under four-and-a-half years remaining on his contract, but whether he remains at Lyon could depend on if the club qualify for next season's Champions League.
