Kyle Naughton is set to miss Tottenham’s clash against Sheffield United as a move to Swansea edges closer.
The 26-year-old full-back came through the ranks at Bramall Lane, making 50 appearances for the Blades before moving to north London in 2009.
Naughton arrived at White Hart Lane at the same time as Kyle Walker, although has struggled to make the same impact as the England right-back.
He is now understood to be closing in on a move to Swansea, with a fee, reported to be £5million, having been agreed with the south Wales club.
Spurs head coach Mauricio Pochettino was coy about Naughton’s future on Tuesday – “I can’t tell you any news or any comment,” he said – but suggested that his exit would be the exception rather than the rule.
