Vincent Janssen says he cannot wait to join Tottenham and is not afraid of challenging Harry Kane for a starting place.
Sky sources understand his Dutch team AZ Alkmaar and Spurs are close to agreeing a fee for the striker, who was the top scorer in the Eredivisie last season.
Janssen says he is just waiting for the deal to be done before flying to England and revealed he is excited by the prospect of linking up with Spurs' top striker Harry Kane.
"I won't train with AZ anymore," he told Algemeen Dagblad. "The clubs are now really close to an agreement. I will go home and wait for the phone call to go.
"I'm glad that it is almost complete. For me, it was clear from the beginning that I wanted to go to Spurs. The competition appeals to me and the plan of the coach is similar to the plan that AZ boss John van den Brom shared with me a year ago at AZ.
"It is a beautiful club with a fantastic stadium and heaps of potential. Anyone in my shoes would take this step.
"Harry Kane? People can say what they want but I'm not afraid of anybody. He is a great striker but we will see how it goes. We can complement each other, I think I can learn a lot from him."
