Tottenham to complete signing of Aurier
Tottenham are set to formally complete the signing of Serge Aurier from Paris St-Germain.
The Ivory Coast right-back, 24, has been granted a work permit, paving the way for his move to be rubber-stamped.
He has already completed a medical and agreed personal terms with Spurs, who had an offer of around £23m accepted by PSG last week.
Aurier could therefore make his Premier League debut against Everton on 9 September and his first appearance for Spurs at Wembley in the Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund four days later.
Chelsea have been linked with the player in recent weeks, as have Manchester United.
There were reports in the French media that PSG threatened to sell him to Barcelona or Juventus, where a permit would not be required, if Tottenham failed to finalise the signing by Wednesday afternoon.
