Tottenham Hotspur left-back Dennis Cirkin is headed to Wearside to undergo a medical, according to reports.

Football Insider, who initially broke the news of Sunderland’s interest, say the 19-year-old will complete his medical this weekend after a six-figure fee was agreed with Nuno Espirito Santo’s side.

Tottenham had offered the highly rated defender a new contract but he has rejected that in favour of joining Lee Johnson’s side and will arrive at the club primed for first team football due to the lack of senior left-backs at the club.

We spoke to Spurs fanzine Lilywhite Rose this week to find out whether Cirkin is any good and you can read that HERE.
