The 18-year-old will cost £2 million and has made 14 first-team appearances for Blackburn.
Wolfsburg defender Micky van de Ven is also due in London on Sunday, awaiting a medical ahead of his £43 million transfer to Spurs.
While Harry Kane’s future remains in doubt due to interest from Bayern Munich, the Spurs have acted quickly to secure reinforcements for Postecoglou ahead of the new season.
Mail Sport revealed that Kane can stay at Spurs this summer despite only having one year left as owner Daniel Levy ignored Bayern Munich’s deadline for Kane.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for the England captain, with Postecoglou keen to focus on the footballing side of things.
