Clinton N’Jie moved to Tottenham in the summer of 2015 but was sold two years later.
Former Tottenham Hotspur winger Clinton N’Jie has told Lyon’s official website that he does not regret moving to north London on his 22nd birthday, as he shines back in Ligue 1 with Marseille.
N’Jie, now 24 years of age, joined Spurs in August 2015, but the speed machine managed just 14 appearances in all competitions for Mauricio Pochettino’s side – failing to score and laying on just one assist.
It saw N’Jie move on loan to Marseille for the 2016-17 season, before making his temporary deal a permanent one in the summer and he has not looked back.
Speaking to Lyon’s official website, where he started his professional career, N’Jie stated that he had “no regrets” over a move to Tottenham.
“I do not regret. It’s a choice I had to make. The club agreed,” N’Jie said.
“Everyone thought it was a good solution. I gained a lot of experience during this adventure in Tottenham. It has served me a lot for the future and it still serves me. So I have no regrets.”
This season, the 21-time Cameroon international has been in explosive form for a Marseille side that boasts former Premier League stars such as Florian Thauvin, Dimitri Payet, Jordan Amavi and Steve Mandanda.
He has scored five goals in nine Ligue 1 appearances, as well as adding four assists in all competitions as Marseille continue to put pressure on the top three with just three points separating them from Lyon and Monaco.
