Georges-Kevin Nkoudou to Tottenham: Latest Transfer Details, Comments, Reaction

Marseille winger Georges-Kevin Nkoudou has completed his move to Tottenham Hotspur after agreeing a long-term contract at White Hart Lane.  

Spurs announced the transfer on Wednesday, and Nkoudou's move will see him remain at the club until the summer of 2021.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has lured one of Marseille's most promising assets to the club, and the Frenchman impressed at the Stade Velodrome last season with a record of 10 goals in 41 appearances.

The 21-year-old started in 33 of those outings for the Ligue 1 giants, and he bagged four goals in seven UEFA Europa League appearances.

Ian Abrahams of TalkSport reported the move hinged on former Lyon man Clinton Njie completing a move back to Ligue 1 with Marseille:

Sky Sports' Lyall Thomas reported in mid-July that Nkoudou was in north London for his medical ahead of completing a move said to be worth £10.8 million. However, the move was repeatedly held up after that. 

It's understood Nkoudou has been a long-term target for Tottenham, who scouted the player while they were chasing Michy Batshuayi, whom Marseille have since sold to Chelsea in a bid to salve their financial woes this summer.
