Lyon have swooped for Sampdoria defender Joachim Andersen.

Sky Italia reports Andersen is moving to France for €25m plus €5m in add-ons. The final details were being worked out on Wednesday evening.

The Denmark international is expected to undergo a medical before the end of the week.

A 23-year-old centre-back, Andersen had also been heavily linked with Inter, Milan, Roma, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.

Samp signed Andersen from FC Twente in 2017 for €1.5m.
