What happened: The deal is structured as £26m guaranteed plus £4m in add-ons and a sell-on clause. A five-year contract is planned, subject to a medical.
Why it matters: The fee would make the midfielder Fulham’s third-most expensive signing. It would also set a transfer record for a Northern Irish player.
By the numbers: Add-ons account for 13.3% of the potential £30m package.
What to watch: A medical is expected Monday before the transfer can be completed.
