Kion Etete in talks to join Cardiff City in a deal worth £500,000 with Tottenham to include a buy-back clause in the exchange for the 20-year-old 6'6 centre-forward

Tottenham's 6ft 6ins striker Kion Etete is in talks to join Cardiff City in a £500,000 deal.

The 20-year old is undergoing a medical today ahead of agreeing terms and it is understood Tottenham will also insert a buy-back clause.

Etete is well regarded at Tottenham but the prospect of him pushing past Harry Kane into the first team set up is slim and he has taken the decision to move to the Championship for a greater chance of regular first team football.

Kion Etete (L) is notable for his size and will provide Cardiff with a physical presence up front

Etete joined Spurs from Notts County after impressing in a trial and has had loan spells with Northampton Town and Cheltenham last season.
