He doesn’t fit their playing style
During N’Koudou’s Marseille days last season, he was dispossessed more often ( 3 times per 90) than any of his teammates, while he ranked first for the number of unsuccessful touches (2.5 per 90).
That hasn’t changed much, with his inability to hold on to the ball and challenge in aerial duels still great disadvantages.
It can be argued he still has a lot of growing to do, but that is being hindered with the lack of regular playing time that won’t be coming to an end anytime soon.
Tottenham are competing on all fronts and aren’t able to make up the time to experiment with such talented player.
An exit, temporary or permanent, seems the best for both club and player.
