Now, Tottenham have reached an agreement with West Ham for Mohammed Kudus for a fee of around £55m, according to David Ornstein. Kudus still has to undergo his medical, but his unveiling is expected to be soon. The Ghana international is set to join on a six-year deal.

Tottenham have been eager to add depth to their forward line this summer and Kudus will become the third signing of the Thomas Frank era after the arrival of Japan defender Kōta Takai and French starlet Mathys Tel. The latter joined Spurs permanently from Bayern Munich earlier this summer after a loan spell last term.

Tottenham Hotspur have agreed a fee of around £55 million (74.7m) to sign West Ham midfielder Mohammed Kudus, a source confirmed to ESPN's James Olley.
