Spurs boss seeks advice on Newcastle’s Marseille winger Thauvin

Tottenham Hotspur are believed to be keen on Olympique Marseille's Florian Thauvin.

RMC is of the belief that Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has once again sought advice from ex-Marseille manager and fellow Argentine Marcelo Bielsa regarding the French winger.

Thauvin is on a season-long loan with Marseille from Newcastle United after failing to impress on Tyneside following his 2015 move from the State Velodrome.

The 24-year-old has an option to join Les Phoceens permanently this summer but Pochettino is believed to be showing plenty of interest and could plot to hijack the move.

Thauvin has scored 12 goals in Ligue 1 this season.
