Steven Bergwijn is expected to be confirmed as a Tottenham player by Wednesday evening after undergoing the final stages of his medical on Tuesday night.
Spurs are set to bring in the Netherlands international from PSV Eindhoven for £25.6m plus add-ons as a replacement for Christian Eriksen, whose transfer to Inter Milan was concluded on Tuesday.
Bergwijn, who made his international debut in October 2018, was kept out of PSV training this week and has been in London to undergo a medical at Tottenham.
The 22-year-old was left out of the PSV squad to face FC Twente on Sunday and was accused by the Dutch media of travelling to London without the club's permission, but manager Ernest Faber later confirmed that it was sanctioned.
A PSV statement read: "Steven Bergwijn did not join his PSV team-mates for training on Tuesday morning.
"Bergwijn has been given permission by PSV to travel to England to finalise a move."
Bergwijn scored 15 goals in 41 appearances last season and has found the net six times in 26 games during the current campaign.
The winger played against Tottenham in last season's Champions League group-stage match between the sides, which Spurs won 2-1 at Wembley.
PSV have been keen to keep Bergwijn at the club and secured him to a new four-year contract in August following months of speculation about his future.
