Tottenham Hotspur are in talks with Galatasaray over deals to part ways with both midfielder Tanguy Ndombele and centre-back Davinson Sanchez, 90min understands.

While the major European transfer windows are now closed, the Turkish window remains open until 15 September, meaning Spurs and any other club can still sell players to the Super Lig.

90min understands Galatasaray have reached out over deals for both Ndombele and Sanchez and there is a belief that solutions can be found for two players who are very much on the fringes of Ange Postecoglou's high-flying squad.

For Ndombele, talks are centred around a loan deal which includes the option for Galatasaray, who have already signed Wilfried Zaha and Hakim Ziyech from Premier League sides this summer, to make the deal permanent.

The 26-year-old midfielder has not made a competitive matchday squad for Spurs since returning from a loan with Napoli last season and now appears set to try and restart his career in Turkey.

As for Sanchez, sources confirm the Colombian defender could leave on a permanent deal for around £7m. Unlike Ndombele, he has featured for Postecoglou, starting the first Premier League game against Brentford as well as the Carabao Cup defeat to Fulham, but has been pushed down the pecking order by the summer arrival of 18-year-old Ashley Phillips, who was initially expected to depart on loan but impressed enough to earn a spot on the bench for the 5-2 win over Burnley.

Galatasaray are seeking to make rapid progress in these transfers as the deadline to register their squad for the Champions League is at midnight on Monday. The Turkish giants have been drawn in Group A and will face Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Copenhagen.
