Sam Clucas is closing in on a move to a Premier League club, Hull City head coach Leonid Slutsky has confirmed.
Clucas asked to be left out of Hull's squad for their 2-1 Championship defeat at QPR on Saturday amid continued transfer speculation.
Burnley have reportedly had two offers rejected for the versatile 26-year-old, while Swansea City are also believed to be keen as they aim to replace Gylfi Sigurdsson after the playmaker's £45million club-record sale to Everton.
"Clucas is preparing to play for another club," Slutsky told reporters after his side's loss to QPR. "I think a deal has been agreed.
"It was his decision not to play, but in the next days I think a deal will be announced. It is a Premier League club. I think it is a decision made all together but it was his as well."
Hull - who have four points from four games after their relegation from the Premier League - reportedly value Clucas, a central midfielder who can also play on the left or in defence, at £20millon.
