Crouch set for Portsmouth medical
Peter Crouch's Blues switch is a step closer after Liverpool accepted a fresh Portsmouth bid.
The long-running pursuit of the England man is finally set to end with the striker poised to undergo a medical.
The clubs have thrashed out a deal worth up to 11m - now the loose ends need tying up.
'We have reached a verbal agreement with Portsmouth and have given them permission to speak with Peter,' a spokesman told the club's website.
Crouch left Blues in March 2002 after scoring 19 goals in 39 games and has since go on to play for Villa, Norwich, Southampton and Liverpool.
