Tunisia international striker Mohamed Amine Chermiti looks set to join Bundesliga outfit Hertha Berlin.

Chermiti's club Etoile Sportive du Sahel Sousse want him to play in the Tunisian Cup semi-final on 28th June, while Hertha insist he is required to arrive in the German capital for pre-season training on 26th June.

"We have reached an agreement, both the clubs and the player. Now it's just a question of when Chermiti will start his new job in Berlin," the 20-year-old's agent told Berliner Zeitung.

Chermiti, who has been offered a four-year deal at the Olympiastadion, will reportedly cost Hertha around €2 million.
