Tanguy Ndombele has called Tottenham a "big club" as he confirmed his interest in leaving Lyon for the Premier League club.
Standard Sport understands the Lyon midfielder is one of Mauricio Pochettino's key summer transfer targets, along with Real Betis playmaker Giovani Lo Celso, Leeds youngster Jack Clarke and Fulham twins Ryan and Steven Sessegnon.
Spurs have opened talks with Lyon over a transfer and are confident of agreeing a fee with the Ligue 1 outfit though were concerned by the player's own preference amid interest from elsewhere.
However, Ndombele says a move to Tottenham would appeal.
"Tottenham are a great team, a big club," he told Telefoot. "They finished fourth in their league and reached the Champions League final.
"They are a big club and what player would not be interested by a big club?"
Ndombele is in no rush to decide on his next club should he leave Lyon this summer as he plans to take a holiday after his commitments with the France national team.
He added: "I will concentrate on what I have to do on the pitch, then I'll go on holiday, rest my head and after that I'll try to see what I can do."
