Tottenham have finally confirmed the signing of Georges-Kevin N’Koudou from Marseille in rather unorthodox fashion.
The club tweeted out a video that pokes fun at the ongoing saga, using a number of “ANNOUNCE N’KOUDOU” tweets and countless cut-outs of headlines about N’Koudou’s protracted transfer.

The video was followed by the official confirmation Spurs fans have been waiting for.

N’Koudou, 21, has been training with Tottenham since last week, but confirmation of his arrival was put on hold until Clinton N’Jie’s loan move in the other direction was finalised.
It appears N’Jie’s deal has finally gone through, allowing Spurs to officially announce N’Koudou’s arrival. He has signed a four-year-deal and will wear the number 14 shirt.
Wow bid deal
Wow learn to spell
Don’t wanna sound pessimistic, but I hope the wait was worth it!
