Tottenham have reached a full agreement to sign West Ham star Mohammed Kudus, according to David Ornstein.
The Lilywhites have been in talks with their London rivals over a deal for the Ghana star in recent weeks and had bids rejected, as West Ham look to raise funds to fund their own squad rebuild this summer.
But a deal has now been agreed for Kudus to make the rare cross between east and north London clubs, with a medical expected to take place in the next 24 hours.
Tottenham Agree Deal for Kudus
Deal worth £55m, medical on Thursday
Kudus, who has been described as 'world-class', struggled for form under Graham Potter in his second season with West Ham, and the club have now decided to cash in for less than his release clause.
According to Ornstein, Tottenham have agreed a fee in the region of £55m for the former Ajax attacker, and he is set to become the second signing for Thomas Frank since his arrival from Brentford, following defender Kota Takai
The club are also looking at making a move to sign Brentford striker Yoane Wissa for Frank as they look to rebuild their forward line, with several players expected to move on.
The club have had contact from clubs over the situation of Brazil star Richarlison, who is said to have no future at the club under the new manager, while there are also question marks over the future of captain Heung-Min Son this summer as he enters the final 12 months of his contract.
Kudus had attracted interest from Saudi Arabia but was keen to stay in Europe, and will now get a chance to return to the Champions League with his new club after two years with the Hammers.
