Bournemouth have agreed a deal to sign defender Julio Soler from Argentine club Lanus for an initial fee of about £6.6m.
The 19-year-old has featured 58 times for Lanus since making his debut in 2022.
The Cherries hope to conclude a deal for Soler in the coming days after agreeing to a deal that could eventually be worth about £11.5m if all add-on clauses are met.
Paraguay-born left-back Soler, who has represented Argentina at youth level, is expected in the UK on Monday to finalise the deal.
Bournemouth's 1-0 win against Everton at Vitality Stadium on Saturday kept them in seventh place in the Premier League.
