Lee 'set to leave Spurs for Roma'
Lee has made 34 appearances for Spurs
Tottenham full-back Lee Young-Pyo is set to move to Italian side Roma, according to the South Korea international's agent.
Lee, 29, joined from PSV Eindhoven last August for an undisclosed fee and has made 34 appearances for Spurs.
"Tottenham and AS Roma have agreed in principle to the transfer of Lee Young-Pyo," Chin Sung-Won told the Yonhap news agency.
"We are in talks with Roma on detailed contract terms."
Lee, who played at the 2002 and 2006 World Cups, spent three years at PSV where he followed his former national team manager Guus Hiddink.
"You can consider the deal as almost sealed, as the only remaining procedure is the player's decision," added his agent.
Roma are looking for a left-back as a replacement for Argentina international Leandro Cufre, who joined Monaco on Tuesday.
FFS why are we selling all our full backs and buying more strikers and midfielders??? Are we going from a stable 4-4-2 to a mental 2-4-4 or something???
