Spurs agree Gomes transfer

Tottenham have agreed a deal with PSV Eindhoven for the transfer of Brazil goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes.

The club will now discuss personal terms with the 27-year-old with the deal also subject to the player acquiring a work permit.

Gomes, a fans' favourite at PSV, had requested a transfer shortly after the club claimed their 21st league title last season, citing differences with managing director Jan Reker.

Gomes, who made his name at Cruzeiro, was an ever-present in PSV's title-winning campaign, conceding only 24 goals in 34 league games. It was his fourth successive Dutch league win since joining the club in 2004.
