West Bromwich Albion should attempt to sign the Tottenham Hotspur ace on loan this summer.

Darren Moore attends the Football Black List 2016 at Village Underground on March 28, 2017 in London, England.

Darren Moore will surely be desperate to bolster his attacking ranks at West Brom last summer, after their woefully impotent play in the final third cost them their Premier League status last season.

The 44-year-old will be keen to add more quality to his wide attacking options, and with this in mind, the Baggies should consider a loan swoop for Tottenham’s Georges-Kévin N’Koudou this summer.

The 23-year-old joined Spurs from Marseille in the summer of 2016, for a fee believed to be worth in the region of £11 million, but he failed to establish himself in north London.

He then spent the second half of last season on loan with Burnley, and once again made little impact.

It could be argued that the young Frenchman has not been given ample opportunity to prove himself, however, and a run of consistent games at West Brom could be just what he needs to breathe fire back into his stuttering career.

N’Koudou possesses undoubted quality, and his ability to run at pace with the ball would certainly help the Baggies improve upon the potency of their attacking play.

At the age of 23, the Tottenham winger really does have to start producing on a consistent basis, and he will be desperate to prove that he is good enough to feature in Mauricio Pochettino’s future plans at Spurs.

That hunger could prove to be crucial to West Brom in the Championship this season, and if Moore manages to bring him to the Hawthorns, it could turn out to be a signing of real significance for the Baggies.
