Nathaniel Clyne is due to undergo a medical at Liverpool today ahead of his £12.5m switch to Anfield.

The Reds struck a fee with Southampton last week but have needed to remain patient to complete the switch due to the the England international having been away on holiday.

The 24-year-old right-back has since returned and is expected on Merseyside today.

Should everything go smoothly Clyne is expected to sign a five-year contract at Anfield and become the long-term successor to Glen Johnson whose contract ran out this summer.

Clyne will be Liverpool's sixth signing of the summer, following the arrivals of James Milner, Danny Ings, Adam Bogdan, Joe Gomez and Roberto Firmino.
