Doherty off to Atletico Madrid
Tottenham had been looking to shift some of their current right-sided options this month to make room for Pedro Porro, who will join from Sporting CP on deadline day after a tough few weeks of negotiations.
Djed Spence is in France ahead of finalising a straight six-month loan to Rennes and now according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Doherty is on his way to Atletico Madrid on loan.
The Irishman will leave Spurs on a standard loan deal, which Atletico Madrid will confirm once centre-back Felipe completes his move to Nottingham Forest.
Roma right-back Rick Karsdorp was also on Atleti's radar but they have instead opted to bring in Doherty.
Emerson Royal had been linked with a move from Spurs to Atletico this month, but he looks set to remain as a squad option.
Doherty will join fellow Tottenham loanee Sergio Reguilon at the Estadio Metropolitano. Both signed for Spurs in the summer of 2020 under Jose Mourinho.
