Tottenham set to sign Lamela

Tottenham are to set to sign Argentinian forward Erik Lamela from Roma after the Serie A club accepted a bid of €30m (£25.8m).

The 21-year-old has scored 19 league goals in two seasons with the Italian capital club and, should his move to White Hart Lane go through, he will help fill the gap left by Gareth Bale should he complete a world-record £86m move to Real Madrid.
