Tottenham Hotspur winger Georges-Kevin N’Koudou has visited Manchester City pal Benjamin Mendy to wish him all the best with his recovery from injury.

The pair played together at Marseille and are also former France under-21 teammates.

Mendy left Marseille for Monaco in 2016, the same summer N’Koudou quit to join Spurs.

Mendy’s move was more successful, with his Monaco performances earning him a £52 million transfer to Manchester City.

His promising City start has been hit by a serious knee injury, which looks set to keep him out for the rest of the club season.

Left-back Mendy had been in Barcelona undergoing knee surgery, The Mirror reported.

He still hopes to recover in time to make France’s World Cup squad for next summer.

For Georges-Kevin N’Koudou, the World Cup squad looks fairly improbable.

His move to Tottenham has not been successful so far, and 14 months after joining, he is still looking to make a first Premier League start.
