AZ Alkmaar have agreed an €8million fee with Tottenham Hotspur to sign forward Troy Parrott.
The 22-year-old will join the Dutch club on a permanent contract, meaning he will depart Spurs after seven years.
Parrott’s current contract with Spurs was due to expire next summer, but the Premier League club have decided to sell him during this transfer window.
The Irish striker joined Spurs in 2017 for an undisclosed fee from Belvedere, though he has spent the majority of his career on loan to various clubs.
Between 2020 and 2023, Parrott spent time away from Spurs at Millwall, Ipswich Town, MK Dons and Preston North End.

Troy Parrott and Tottenham Hotspur: it's decision time
Last season, Parrott impressed on loan in the Eredivisie with Excelsior, attracting the attention of AZ Alkmaar.
Parrott thrived during his season in the Dutch top flight, netting 17 goals and providing five assists in 32 appearances across all competitions.
However, his first-team opportunities at Spurs have been limited, making just four appearances for the north London side.
Spurs, meanwhile, are looking to strengthen their squad this summer ahead of the 2024-25 season.
They have already signed Archie Gray from Leeds United and are admirers of Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher.
Richarlison is also attracting interest from the Saudi Pro League and if the Brazilian departs, he would need to be replaced.
