By Football Italia staff

Roma have agreed a €5m transfer for Dinamo Zagreb’s teenage defender Tin Jedvaj, beating Tottenham.

According to Sky Sport Italia, the 17-year-old is already at the Trigoria training ground in Rome for a medical.

The Giallorossi will hand over €5m plus 20 per cent of any future sale, while the player is set to sign a five-year contract.

Centre-back Jedvaj played 13 games for Dinamo Zagreb in the HNL last season, scoring one goal.

He had also been of interest to Tottenham and the Croatian club had confirmed negotiations last week.
