Bournemouth have agreed a club record £40.2m deal to sign Brazil striker Evanilson from Porto.
They will pay £31.7m with the potential for another £8.5m on top, should certain clauses be met.
The Cherries had also been looking at Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah.
However, sources have said a bid for Evanilson has been accepted, with the 24-year-old due to fly in for a medical later today.
Speaking to BBC Sport last month, Bournemouth owner Bill Foley said they had contingencies in place if a club triggered Dominic Solanke’s release clause - with the England international joining Tottenham last week in a deal worth up to £65m.
Evanilson was called into the Brazil squad for this summer’s Copa America and has won his first two caps this year.
He joined Porto in 2020 and scored 17 goals last season across the Portuguese league and Champions League.
Bournemouth’s previous record signing was Jefferson Lerma, who cost £25m when he left Spanish side Levante in 2018.
