West Ham United have clinched a £17 million agreement with Charlton for striker Darren Bent.
The Hammers have agreed to pay £16m for Charlton's England striker with midfielder Hayden Mullins, rated at £1m, heading to The Valley as part of the package.
Bent, 23, has agreed personal terms on a five-year contract worth £75,000 a week and will fly home from holiday in the Caribbean for a medical.
The transfer should be completed by the weekend to confirm another coup for Alan Curbishley and his big-spending West Ham board, says the Daily Mail.
