It’s over, the wait is finally over for Georges-Kevin N’Koudou, Clinton N’Jié, Marseille fans, Tottenham fans… Everyone!
The French newspaper have an article on their website claiming this is now ‘the end of a saga that will have lasted a month’.
It’s true. Towards mid-July, the Marseille winger was sent to London to have a medical ahead of a proposed move to Spurs, which he passed, and since he’s just been waiting.
Clinton N’Jié was close to going the other way on loan with a view to buy, but things got messy, no-one really knowing why, and huge delays ensued.
L’Equipe say this will be done now that Marseille and Tottenham have reached an ‘agreement in principle’ for N’Koudou, and the 21-year-old will sign a five-year contract, having already passed his medical.
As for N’Jié, it’s as expected: a loan with a view to buy.
