TOTTENHAM could be about to see another defender leave the club.
Vlad Chiriches is edging closer to a switch to Italian giants Roma.
According to reports in Gazzetta dello Sport, the player's agent has met with Roma officials to discuss a six month loan deal, with an option to buy at the end of the season.
While talks are still ongoing, the two clubs are said to be close to agreeing the move.
His exit would follow on from fellow defender Kyle Naughton, who completed his £5m switch to Swansea earlier this month.
While Spurs have brought DeAndre Yedlin in from Seattle Sounders, he is yet to fully acclimatize to England.
Chiriches has featured in just six league games for Spurs this season.
The 25-year-old was signed from Steaua Bucharest in 2013 for 9.5m euros.
