Djed Spence is now set to undergo a medical at Leeds United ahead of his proposed loan switch from Tottenham Hotspur.
That is according to ESPN journalist James Olley, who says Spence is now expected to travel north shortly ahead of completing his move to the Whites.
Leeds are said to have agreed an initial loan fee of £500,000 with Spurs for Spence, which could potentially rise to £1.5 million in add-ons.
An agreement between the two clubs was struck this afternoon, with Phil Hay reporting a deal is expected to be wrapped up in the next 48 hours.
As per Football London journalist Alasdair Gold, Leeds were just waiting on the final green light from Spence, which appears to have now arrived.
Spence set to travel to Leeds for medical
Spence has been allowed to leave Spurs this summer with new manager Ange Postecoglou not seeing him as part of his plans.
The 23-year-old only arrived from Middlesbrough 13 months ago in a £20 million deal but has struggled to make an impact in North London.
Spurs have been unable to find a permanent buyer for Spence and so are happy to send him out on loan with Leeds able to offer him regular game time.
Spence looks likely to be the first of several signings this week as Leeds prepare for a very busy end to the window which could see them add as many as five new players.
Spence’s arrival should be regarded as a significant coup providing he can return to the levels he showed at Nottingham Forest.
