Blackburn agree to sign Tottenham winger Dilan Markanday in permanent deal that could be worth over £1m, with offer of regular first-team football too good for the youngster to turn down

Blackburn Rovers hope to complete the signing of Dilan Markanday early next week after agreeing a deal with Tottenham for the winger.

Blackburn will pay an initial £500,000 for the 20 year-old with performance and team-related bonuses which could take the eventual fee beyond £1m.

A significant sell-on clause has also been inserted into the deal with Markanday’s Blackburn medical potentially taking place over the weekend.

Dilan Markanday made his first-team debut for Tottenham against Vitesse Arnhem in October

Barnet-born Markanday is a product of Spurs’s academy and has starred repeatedly for their under-23s this season, scoring 12 times and setting up five more goals in just 14 games.
