Tottenham youngster N’Jie accepts Marseille terms

Clinton N'Jie's proposed loan move to Marseille looks set to go ahead.

The Tottenham Hotspur forward has been heavily linked with a temporary shift to OM but a change of ownership at the Stade Velodrome has caused some difficulty in the completion of a deal.

However, according to L'Equipe, it appears as though 23-year-old Cameroonian N'Jie has now accepted Marseille's loan terms and will join for the 2016/17 season on Wednesday.

It is understood that the deal includes a 'quasi-obligatory' option for a permanent transfer of £5.9million (€7m).

N'Jie's move to Marseille will clear the path for Spurs to complete the £9.4m (€11m) signing of Georges Kevin N'Koudou.
