Tottenham are closing in on the signing of winger Yang Min-hyuk from Gangwon FC.

The 18-year-old is expected to complete a move to Spurs by the time the club face a K-League XI at Seoul World Cup Stadium in his native South Korea.

The Korea youth international has scored seven goals in his 24 senior matches for Gangwon and became the youngest K-League scorer since 2013 when netting his first goal for the club in March.

He is expected to become the latest Korean footballer to join Spurs after current captain Son Heung-min and Lee Young-pyo.
