Tottenham ready to sell Clinton Njie after just one season - source

Tottenham will listen to offers for winger Clinton Njie after agreeing a fee for Marseille's Georges-Kevin Nkoudou, a source close to the Premier League club has told ESPN FC.

Njie joined Spurs from £13 million from Lyon last summer but made just eight league appearances, all from the bench, in an injury-hit maiden season in England.

Mauricio Pochettino is said to be unconvinced by Njie and the manager will use the club's upcoming trip to Melbourne, where they face Juventus and Atletico Madrid in the International Champions Cup, to give youngsters Marcus Edwards, Kazaiah Sterling and Shayon Harrison the chance to impress.

However, a report in French daily L'Equipe claims Njie has rejected the chance to join Marseille on loan -- in a deal independent from Spurs' imminent £10.8 million move for Nkoudou, who will undergo a medical in London on Tuesday.

The source also said that there is interest in Nacer Chadli from rival Premier League clubs but that Tottenham are unlikely to allow both players to leave.

Pochettino has so far recruited Victor Wanyama from Southampton and Vincent Janssen from AZ Alkmaar for a combined £28m, as the club bolster their squad ahead of a return to the Champions League this season.

A source said Spurs stepped up interest in Nkoudou after deciding against pursuing Newcastle's Georginio Wijnaldum and Lille winger Sofiane Boufal.
