Tottenham defender Thimothee Atouba is in Germany to complete a transfer to Hamburg.
The Cameroon international has been discussing personal terms after Spurs agreed a deal with the Bundesliga club for his services.
The left-sided player recently asked to leave White Hart Lane after failing to secure a regular place in Spurs` starting line-up under Martin Jol and is expected to complete a transfer in the next 24 hours.
/>Atouba, who joined Spurs from Basle in August 2004, will cost £1.4million and Hamburg are hoping to agree personal terms with the player as soon as possible.
"Hamburg and Tottenham have reached an agreement over the transfer of Atouba," Hamburg spokesman Jorn Wolf told PA International.
"But now it`s up to the player and Hamburg to reach a final agreement. He is in Hamburg today to undergo a medical and sort out a few contract issues and we hope to finalise the deal tonight."
