Eriksen will finally end wait over deal

Meanwhile, Moussa Sissoko could emerge as a late target as Spurs seek to deliver the attacking midfielder requested by boss Mauricio Pochettino.

Newcastle have refused to drop their £35million asking price for the 27-year-old but he has not made a single appearance this season.

Inter Milan and Juventus targeted him earlier in the summer but stepped back when they learned the size of the fee.

Spurs bid £14m for Wilfried Zaha last week and are considering their next move, even though Crystal Palace insist their player is not for sale.

Intriguingly, sources have mentioned interest in out-of-favour Manchester United wide-man Memphis Depay, who was wanted by Spurs before he moved to Old Trafford in 2015.

Marseille winger Georges-Kevin Nkoudou may finally complete his protracted move to Spurs, which is still not finalised despite the player passing a medical a month ago.

Ryan Mason (Hull) and Heung-Min Son (Wolfsburg) are poised to leave and Kevin Wimmer may be available for transfer, while Spurs could make a loan move for Manchester City defender Eliaquim Mangala.
