​Tottenham edge closer to signing Lyon forward Njie

Lyon are close to striking a deal with Tottenham Hotspur for the transfer of Cameroon striker Clinton Njie to the London side, says the French club's president Jean-Michel Aulas.

"We are close to an agreement but there's no urgency for us," he told French radio RMC.

"We want to complete our own signings first... but I thank [Tottenham chairman] Daniel Levy for making an offer that we now regard as consistent," he added.
