Tottenham have agreed a £13million deal to sign Santos full-back Souza. The player's medical is set to take place in the coming days.
The teenage star is also said to have drawn interest from AC Milan and Newcastle before Tottenham's decisive move. Souza is described as 'fast, quick and very offensive'.
Souza made 29 appearances for Santos last term and produced a goal and two assists in that period. The defender missed around four months with an ankle injury before establishing himself as a regular starter for the Brazilian club.
