Tottenham midfielder Tanguy Ndombele has hailed the impact Gareth Bale's words of wisdom are having on the dressing-room.

Four-time Champions League winner Bale re-signed for Spurs on loan from Real Madrid five weeks ago.

Ndombele said: “I haven't spoken an awful lot with Gareth because my English still isn't great.

“But you can see he's a really great guy and he's certainly trying to speak with everybody.

“It has really helped for the team to have someone with his experience having played at Real Madrid and won four Champions Leagues like he has.

“So it's great to have him here and I hope he's going to start really helping the team right away."
