Tottenham are interested in Marseille winger Georges-Kevin N'Koudou, according to Sky sources.

It is understood the 21-year-old caught the eye of Spurs scouts while they were looking at former Marseille striker Michy Batshuayi, who joined Chelsea earlier this month

Reports in France claim a deal of £10.8m has been agreed between the clubs and he will soon fly to London for a medical.

Spurs have refused to comment on these reports when contacted by Sky Sports News HQ

Mauricio Pochettino wants to add another versatile attacking-midfielder to his squad after signing striker Vincent Janssen and defensive-midfielder Victor Wanyama.

N'Koudou is young and raw, but made 28 appearances for Marseille last season after arriving from Nantes for £1m in the summer of 2015.

The Versailles-born attacker, who can play on the left or right, is a France U21 international with six caps and a goal.
