Georges-Kevin Nkoudou completes move to Tottenham from Marseille

Tottenham Hotspur have announced the signing of forward Georges-Kevin Nkoudou from Marseille for a fee of around £11 million, with Clinton Njie joining the French club on loan for the season.

Nkoudou, 21, penned a five-year deal at White Hart Lane after the deal was originally agreed in July, and he will wear the No. 14 shirt.

France under-21 international Nkoudou joined Marseille from Nantes in a £1m deal last summer and scored five goals in 28 Ligue 1 appearances last season.

Nkoudou is Spurs' third signing of the summer after midfielder Victor Wanyama from Southampton and striker Vincent Janssen from AZ Alkmaar, as manager Mauricio Pochettino boosts his squad ahead of the club's return to the Champions League.

Njie, Spurs' 22-year-old winger signed from Lyon last summer, made just eight league appearances, all from the bench, in his single season in England and his loan deal reportedly includes the option for the Ligue 1 club to buy him next summer.

Tottenham have also announced that they have signed Espanyol goalkeeper Pau Lopez on a season-long loan deal.
