Tottenham agree £55m deal to sign star from Premier League rival as Thomas Frank inches closer to landing first big signing since taking over

Tottenham have agreed a deal worth around £55million for West Ham winger Mohammed Kudus, Mail Sport understands.

The 24-year-old is expected to have his medical at Spurs on Thursday ahead of signing a long-term contract.

West Ham initially rejected a £50m bid for the Ghana international last week before talks continued.

Spurs identified Kudus as a top target for new boss Thomas Frank and have secured a deal for well below the winger’s £85m release clause that ran for the first 10 days of July.

Kudus’ move will see the breaking of an informal transfer embargo between the two sides who have not sold a player to each other in more than 10 years.
