I'm quite excited to see what he can do with a full pre-season under his belt

A healthy Clinton N'Jie hitting the form he showed in France would be a very, very nice thing to see.
Marseille want Njie, Spurs to sign Nkoudou in days
Bullshit or possible?, seems strange to be looking to swap one young, fast ,raw winger for another.
Sorry, i see this is already in the transfer thread. Nothing to see here.

Interesting but I'd say let's keep Clinton. It might be good to loan him out to a good club but not to sell him. He has ability just needs a proper crack at things.
I'd like to keep him but if Poch would rather N'Koudou then fair enough.
Clinton playing in a 4-4-2 Diamond as a striker scored 7 goals in 37 games.
N'Koudou playing as a left midfielder in a team with less quality scored 5 in 27 games.
Just some bollocks stats I'm throwing out their.

According to a 'well-place Tottenham source', N'jie wants out.

Funny cos Llyal says he wants to stay lol
If that's true, that might be one of the weirdest transfer stories I've heard. What if Clinton hadn't been home? What if he'd pulled a DeAndre Jordan on him? Very strange.
The outgoing president who won't even be there if he goes makes it even more weird.
Apparently Poch and Mitchell told him they wanted him to stay he agreed despite phone calls from their coach and some other geezer, which had no effect on his decision, so the outgoing president flew over to persuade him, unannounced, and stayed up with Clint till 3am.
So, I take it N'jie didn't have to be in for gruelling training on Tuesday morning then?
Edit: I take it that the outgoing president would have to get permission to approach one of our players like this, wouldn't he?
He does have that look as if he's fucked because he's been photographed somewhere he wasn't meant to be, though...
We have done some very good business over the last few seasons but this Clinton signing seemed odd from the start. By all accounts he was very raw and early in his development. (I think that showed when he actually got on the pitch for us as well). He clearly has upside though and pace.
So why after one season have we apparently moved on from him? The club won't openly say that but they are signing another player very similar in all aspects.
So did they think Clinton would hit the ground running. did they see something in him that they have doubts he will come good? Is their other concerns we don't know about (off pitch)? Did our title charge change their timetable on players like him?
the whole situation is strange to me
