Young Marseille man closes in on Spurs switch

 

Tottenham are close to securing the services of young Marseille winger Georges-Kevin Nkoudou, reports Get French Football. 

 

The Premier League side are keen to bolster their attack further this summer and have already secured the services of Vincent Janssen. 

 

However, manager Mauricio Pochettino is eager to improve his wide options and has identified Nkoudou as a possible arrival. 

 

Marseille are under pressure to cash in on their star players and recently sold Michy Batshuayi to Chelsea in order to raise funds. 

 

Spurs were hopeful of securing the Belgian’s services and are keen to exploit Marseille’s financial woes to bolster their squad.
