Bye Érik Lamela?

UPDATE: Mauricio Pochettino has blocked Érik Lamela’s loan to Marseille.

Tottenham’s Argentine winger is closing in on a move to France to join Olympique Marseille. It’s unknown if this is actually a loan deal or a permanent sale because Gianluca Di Marzio doesn’t mention it at all. Here’s his tweet followed by the link in said tweet (Google Translate butchers everything):

"OM, it is made for Lamela: is the signature “After divestments, purchases at home Marseille. It made ​​for Lamela, former playmaker of Rome. Deal closing, the player signed the contract in these minutes. Then Lamela will become a new player of OM.”"

Because there have been no bids talked about, this is currently tagged under the “undisclosed fee” type of transfer. One add-on that Tottenham should consider is putting in a buy-back clause — just in case he does well in France and Spurs want to sell to the highest bidder a la Atlético Madrid and Toby Alderweireld.
