Tottenham are hoping to unveil Holland midfielder Edgar Davids at White Hart Lane tomorrow.
Davids spent another day locked in talks with Spurs over a one-year deal but the North London club are convinced they can finalise personal terms with the 32-year-old.
He watched from the directors' box as Tottenham beat Reading in a friendly on Saturday - waving to fans who chanted his name throughout.
Meanwhile, Spurs new boy Wayne Routledge has apologised to Crystal Palace fans for his reaction to being barracked last season.
The England Under-21 international was heavily criticised by Palace fans at the end of last season after refusing to sign a new contract at Selhurst Park.
Routledge believes he has learnt a lot from the whole episode and is concentrating on life at White Hart Lane.
Routledge admitted: "It seems a long time ago but I am at Tottenham after what seemed a long, drawn-out process, so it's good to get some training under my belt.
"It was frustrating it took so long to move across London but I was always totally concentrated on my football.
"It is definitely something I have learned from, something that has made me stronger. It was hard to cope with but I just love playing football. So as long as I was playing I could push everything to the back of my mind."
