Tottenham have announced the signing of France Under-21 international forward Georges-Kevin N’Koudou.

The Premier League side, who drew 1-1 against Liverpool at the weekend to sit seventh in the current English top-flight standings, have been linked with a move for the highly-rated Marseille winger for the entire summer transfer window.

The 21-year-old, who has featured six times for the French Under-21 squad since making his international debut against Estonia back in March 2015, scored an impressive 10 goals and provided five assists in 41 appearances for the Ligue 1 outfit last season.

The North London side confirm the young winger has signed a contract with the club until 2021 and will wear the number 14 shirt.

Tottenham also announced that fellow winger Clinton N’Jie has joined Marseille on loan until the end of the 2016-17 term.

The Cameroon international, who arrived at White Hart Lane back in August 2015 following his reported £8.3m switch from fellow French side Lyon, failed to score in 14 appearances last season.
