Aberdeen have accepted a bid from Serie A side Lecce for midfielder Ylber Ramadani.
The 27-year-old has been repeatedly linked with a move to the Italian side over the past month.
The Dons rejected a bid earlier this week for the Albania international but The Press and Journal understands a bid which would be worth around £1.2million with add-ons has now been accepted.
The midfielder was an unused substitute in Saturday’s 3-2 friendly win at Charlton Athletic and threw his strip to the Dons supporters at full-time.
Ramadani is expected to undergo a medical in Italy on Thursday when the deal could be finalised.
The midfielder made 44 appearances last season after joining the club from Hungarian side MTK Budapest.
His high-energy, combative style has made him a popular figure among the Dons support.
Ramadani made it clear to the Dons that he was desperate to make the move to Italy. Hellas Verona had also been linked with a move for the Dons player.
Ramadani’s imminent departure comes as the Dons close in on their ninth signing of the summer.
Left-back James McGarry, who has been capped by New Zealand, is close to joining the Dons on a permanent deal from Central Coast Mariners.
