Tottenham defender Eric Dier is close to completing a move to Bayern Munich for a fee of 4m euros (£3.4m).
Dier, 29, has been pictured in Germany before having a medical with the German champions.
The England international has been out of favour under Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou, making four Premier League appearances this season.
Spurs are set to complete the signing of Genoa centre-back Radu Dragusin for around £25m.
Dier will join former Tottenham and England team-mate Harry Kane at 32-time Bundesliga champions Bayern.
Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel said in a news conference on Thursday: “He’s a specialist at centre-back. He has also played as a six in the Premier League, but not any more for a long time.
“We’re getting him for the centre-back position, can play right or left centre-back as well as in back three.”
Dier, who only has six months left on his current Spurs deal, has been capped 49 times by England but struggled to claim a first-team place for Tottenham this season.
Postecoglou said his side could afford to lose Dier, despite injury problems in defence.
