Reports are out claiming that Blackpool winger Thomas Ince is ready to commit to a move to AS Monaco.
The Daily Mail reported that the Ligue 1 side look like they have won the race for England Under 21 winger Ince after setting up talks with him in London on Thursday.
It is said that Blackpool boss Paul Ince drove his son to the capital to meet Monaco representatives for discussions over a pre-contract deal to join the French club at the end of the season.
There was confusion at Blackpool over Ince Snr’s whereabouts after he pulled out of a press conference ahead of Saturday’s Championship game at Barnsley.
Instead of talking to the press, he responded to a request from Monaco to meet Tom, who is out of contract in the summer and has been free to talk to foreign clubs since January 1.
