Tottenham are closing in on the signing of Ivory Coast international Serge Aurier after the Paris St Germain defender was granted a work permit.
The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with a move away from the Parc des Princes for much of the summer and Press Association Sport understands he now looks set to join up with the Premier League side.
The matter of Aurier being granted a work permit had been complicated as he was handed a suspended two-month prison sentence last year having been found guilty of assault.
