Tottenham‘s new signing Tanguy Ndombele revealed that the fast-paced nature of the Premier League has been his biggest challenge since his move to the North London side.

The midfielder played a pivotal role at Lyon and claimed that Spurs’ playing style is similar to that of his former club.

However, he did admit that the Premier League games are very fast, with no time to stay calm and rest.

“They are both teams that play with the ball,” he told the Tottenham website.

“The big difference between the Premier League and Ligue 1 is the speed.

“Here in the Premier League it is always a fast paced game. The players drive forward, but in France there are periods of calm. That is the big difference.”

Ndombele also mentioned that he has not set any individual goals and will look to achieve silverware with Spurs as a team.

He added: “I’m not the kind of person who sets themselves any limits.

“We are going to try to go as far as we can and try to achieve something.

“The season is long and I hope we can achieve to the best of our abilities.”
