Tottenham Hotspur agree terms with Vincent Marcel, according to a report.
Tottenham Hotspur are closing in on the signing of Vincent Marcel, according to Foot Mercato.
The report claims that the Nice attacking midfielder has been offered a five-year contract by the North London club.
And Foot Mercato reports that he has agreed to join Tottenham in principle.
The Sun reported at the weekend that Spurs scouts had discovered him by accident when they went to watch Ricardo Pereira.
Marcel, who started five games in all competitions for the French side last season, would be the Premier League club’s first signing of the summer transfer window if it goes through.
The youngster can also operate as a winger so it remains to be seen where Lilywhites boss Mauricio Pochettino plans to use him.
Marcel will arrive as an unknown, if the transfer materialises, but the Argentine coach is extremely adept at developing young talent and Spurs fans should be excited by his potential arrival.
Nantes were also interested in the talent, according to the report.
