Kristers Tobers fee agreed as Latvia captain due to arrive in Aberdeen today
Aberdeen have agreed a fee with Swiss side Grasshoppers to bring Lativa captain Kristers Tobers to Pittodrie.
The Dons will be looking to complete the £700,000 deal when the 24-year-old defender arrives in the Granite City on Wednesday.
Sky Sports are reporting that Tobers has already agreed personal terms with the Reds and will fly into Aberdeen to undergo a medical and finalise the move.

Tobers will have to await the awarding of a work permit to see if he can face the Jambos at Pittodrie at the weekend, but Jimmy Thelin will be praying the paperwork is signed in time for Sunday's clash.
He is currently without three centre-backs, with both Jack Milne and Gavin Molloy injured, and Slobodan Rubezic suspended after being sent off against Motherwell.
It leaves Angus MacDonald as the only fit centre-half available to play, with Tobers having been made a key target to help shore up the back line.
