Tottenham agree deal to loan £9m winger to Besiktas – reports

Georges-Kevin Nkoudou TEAMtalk

Tottenham Hotspur winger Georges-Kevin Nkoudou is set to leave the club on loan again this summer, with reports in Turkey suggesting he has accepted terms with Besiktas.

The 24-year-old Frenchman has struggled to settle in at Spurs since joining from Marseille in a £9m deal in 2016, managing just 10 Premier League appearances, with no goals.

He has spent half-season loans at fellow Premier League side Burnley and back in Ligue 1 with Monaco, but neither spell was successful.

Tottenham are struggling to offload him permanently, with his contract still running until 2021, and his market value having dipped to around £5m.

Now, according to TRT Spor (via the Mirror‘s live transfer blog), his next loan will be in Turkey with Besiktas, who finished third in the Super Lig last season – meaning they will compete in the Europa League this campaign.

It is claimed that Besiktas have agreed a deal in principle with Spurs to take the former France Under-21 international on loan for the 2019-20 season.
