Real Betis are set to sign Sunderland midfielder Alfred N'Diaye today.
The Evening Chronicle says N'Diaye's move to Real Betis could be finalised today, the midfielder's agent set to meet officials from the Spanish club.
Betis agreed a £2m fee with Sunderland for N'Diaye earlier this week but the player was been unable to agree personal terms and at one stage it seemed the club were ready to move on to other targets.
However, N'Diaye's brother and agent Bakary Ciss is due to hold more talks with Betis in Seville today and sources in Spain suggest the parties are close to a deal.
