TRANSFER TALK

Marseille still trying to convince Njie to join

Marseille have been negotiating with Tottenham to take Clinton Njie on loan with an option to buy. Spurs are so keen to sell him that we have even been discussing such a deal. Normally we like to sell a player or loan them with a guarantee of the player being purchased at the end of the loan in the same manner in which we sold Lewis Holtby.

Mauricio Pochettino and Paul Mitchell have spoken to Clinton Njie to tell him he isn't going to get much chance next season with increased competition.and moving up to the Champions League stage. Paul Mitchell. The French press are also reporting that Marseille  club President Vincent Labrune flew to London to visit Clinton Njie's at home again to try and convince him to leave Spurs.

Marseille struggled last season, they have to survive on loan players and free transfers almost next season, so apart from regular football, they have little else to offer. He did convince him to fly to France and have a look around so they could hold further talks. He needs to reignite his career, it looks as if it is going to stagnate at Tottenham, who have chosen to replace him by giving his opportunity to Georges-Kevin N'Koudou.

It seems Pochettino has decided you have had your chance Clinton and you haven't taken it, time to try someone else. We'll have to wait and see what happens over the next few days as Pochettino will want this situation sorted.
