Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho insists that Tanguy Ndombele is part of his plans despite limited game time since the resumption of the Premier League season.

The club-record signing has played just 64 minutes of football in total since the Premier League resumed last month and is a major doubt for Wednesday with an injury picked up in training.

Mourinho has previously criticised Ndombele's fitness and attitude, but insists the Barcelona target remains part of his plans going forward.

"Every player is part of my plans," he said. "Everyone. I don’t give up on players. No player has a privilege. Every player is for me the same.

"No problem at all. Every player is part of my plans."

Standard Sport understands that Barcelona have made an approach for Ndombele, as well as teenage left back Ryan Sessegnon, but Tottenham have no interest in allowing either player to leave.
