Tottenham Hotspur have agreed to sell Japhet Tanganga to Millwall in the summer window, according to a report from The Mirror.
The 25-year-old has spent the second half of the season on loan with Millwall, and the Championship club are keen to get him on board permanently.
Tanganga has played a significant role in helping Millwall secure their league status this season. Fabrizio Romano has suggested that Spurs have given the green light for the transfer to go through.
He has a contract with the north London club until the end of the season, although Spurs do have the option to extend his deal for another year.
Millwall have now moved quickly to strike an agreement for Tanganga who needs to agree personal terms with the club.

Japhet Tanganga set for Tottenham exit
Ange Postecoglou has made up his mind already and it looks like he is not in his plans next season.
Tanganga spent the first half of the season at German club FC Augsburg where he failed to make a single appearance. Spurs then sent him on loan to Millwall in the January transfer window, a move that has worked well for him.
He has made 18 appearances in total, scoring two goals, and the Lions are ready to sign him, although they could face fierce competition from others for his signature.
Tottenham will be looking to sign a new defender in the summer window, and Postecoglou needs to free up space for fresh additions to the squad. Tanganga has come through the youth academy at Spurs and has made 50 appearances for them in all competitions.
