Tottenham Hotspur have reached an agreement to sign Mohammed Kudus from West Ham for 54.5m. Kudus is due to undergo a medical on Thursday and will sign a six-year deal.
West Ham's decision to sell Kudus to their London rivals is down to their needing to revamp their squad without inviting a potential breach of the Premier League's profitability and sustainability regulations.
Kudus had an 85m release clause valid for Premier League sides for the first 10 days of July but West Ham were always likely to accept a lower fee.
Kudus impressed after joining West Ham from Ajax for 37m two years but struggled last season. He clashed with Potter's predecessor, Julen Lopetegui, and managed four goals in all competitions.
