Super Lig Giants Galatasaray Eye Move for Tottenham Outcast Georges-Kevin N’Koudou
Galatasaray are keen on signing Tottenham's Georges-Kevin N'Koudou this window, as they look to replace recently departed winger Garry Rodrigues.
Tottenham would be eager to strike a deal for a player who has largely disappointed since making the move to north London in 2016.

Turkish publication Aksam claim that Tottenham value the player at around £8m, who they brought to the club for £11m. Whether Galatasaray would be willing to splash such a fee on the 23-year-old is uncertain, as they may been more keen to bring the player on loan, with an option to buy, giving them time to assess the player.
Aksam have stated, however, that while Tottenham would be willing to offload the winger, any final say on the transfer rests with Galatasaray manager Fatih Terim.
Having arrived at Spurs with rave reviews following a string of fine performances for Marseille in Ligue 1, the Frenchman has since become a peripheral figure under Mauricio Pochettino, limited mainly to cup competitions.
He has only turned out 23 times for Spurs since joining, registering his solitary goal last season in a Champions League group match against Apoel in December 2017, while he has featured just twice this term.
N'Koudou spent the second half of last season on loan at Burnley, where he failed to score in eight Premier League appearances for the Clarets, yet had time to display his immense raw speed, resulting in him being linked with Fenerbahce last summer.
