Tottenham are set to sign Slavia Prague goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky in a deal worth about £12.5m.
The 21-year-old would give Spurs further options in goal, having lost number one Guglielmo Vicario to a fractured ankle in November.
Multiple sources involved in the deal say a fee has been agreed for the Czech Republic Under-21 player but the move has not been publicly confirmed yet by Spurs or Slavia Prague.
It is hoped Kinsky will complete paperwork and a medical this weekend before sealing a permanent move to north London.
He has made 29 appearances for Slavia Prague this season and kept 14 clean sheets.
Manager Ange Postecoglou says he is working with technical director Johan Lange to secure new signings, amid an injury and illness crisis.
Eight players were missing for Saturday’s home match against Newcastle, with Rodrigo Bentancur also suspended.
Among those out was number two goalkeeper Fraser Forster, which led to a debut for 25-year-old Brandon Austin.
