Notts County winger Callum Roberts is set to join Aberdeen on a three-year deal, subject to a medical.
The Dons have agreed a fee of around £100,000 for the 25-year-old.
Roberts was a youth player at Newcastle United and has previous experience of Scottish football having spent time on loan at Kilmarnock in 2017.
The left-footed winger is in his final year of his contract at Notts County and is a former teammate of Jayden Richardson, who joined the Dons earlier this month.
Roberts scored 16 goals in 36 appearances for County in the National League last season.
The Dons remain keen to add to their squad ahead of the start of their Scottish Premiership opener against Celtic on Sunday.
The Reds expect to learn over the next week if a move for Wolves midfielder Connor Ronan will be possible.
Wolves boss Bruno Lage took Ronan on a pre-season tour to Spain and Portugal to get a closer look at the 24-year-old, who has also been linked with Hearts and German side St Pauli.
Ronan started for Wolves in a 2-1 friendly defeat against Levante in Alicante last week and Sunday’s 2-1 defeat by Villarreal B.
The Dons have had two bids rejected for Fleetwood Town winger Shayden Morris, while Aberdeen boss Jim Goodwin is also in the market for a left back.
