Leicester have reached an agreement with Tottenham over the signing of midfielder Oliver Skipp, the PA news agency understands.
Skipp has reportedly been keen to secure a move away from Spurs in search of regular football after he only had a bit-part role under Ange Postecoglou last season.
It is claimed Skipp is set for a Leicester medical on Sunday with a deal expected to be completed before Monday’s Premier League opener at home to Tottenham, live on Sky Sports.
Spurs academy graduate Skipp made his professional debut in 2018 when still a teenager and will depart his boyhood club after 106 appearances.
The 23-year-old will become the seventh summer arrival under new Leicester boss Steve Cooper, but will not be registered in time to feature in Monday’s match with Spurs.
