Tottenham have agreed a deal to sign Juventus winger Dejan Kulusevski on loan.
The Sweden international will travel to London on Sunday to undergo a medical before finalising the deal, which will include an option for Spurs to sign him permanently.
The move for Kulusevski comes after Spurs were beaten to the signing of Porto winger Luis Diaz by Liverpool.
The Colombia international prefers a move to Jurgen Klopp’s side and has undergone a medical ahead of his switch to Anfield.
Tottenham also missed out on Wolves forward Adama Traore, who instead re-joined Barcelona on loan.
Kulusevski has made 27 appearances for Juventus in all competitions this season, but only seven of those were starts.
The 21-year-old – who has three-and-a-half years remaining on his contract – has scored twice during the current campaign.
Fabio Paratici, Tottenham’s managing director of football, oversaw the £37m signing of Kulusevski from Atalanta in January 2020 during his time at Juventus.
Spurs are also hoping to sign Rodrigo Bentancur, Kulusevski’s Juventus team-mate, before the window closes on Monday night.
