The Croatian midfield schemer will join Tottenham in a
£2.5million move.
Spurs boss Redknapp said: "I'm really delighted. I
signed him for Portsmouth and he's a fantastic player and a great
lad.
"I've already got two fantastic Croatian players - Luka
Modric and Vedran Corluka - who can help him settle in."
Kranjcar, 25, who will sign a four-year deal, was
allowed to leave Croatia's World Cup training camp last night. He
is expected to have a medical today.
Redknapp is poised to bolster his squad further with
deadline-day moves for Manchester City's out-of-favour winger
Martin Petrov and Pompey's England goalkeeper David James.
Bulgarian Petrov, 30, will be allowed to leave City for
free - and national team-mate Dimitar Berbatov has told him joining
Spurs would be a great move.
Berba, who quit Tottenham for Manchester United last
year, said: "I wish a lot that Martin will join Tottenham. The
behaviour of City to him is not good.
"Tottenham is a bigger club than City. I know from sure
sources that Martin will have a chance to play at Tottenham."
Petrov has pulled out of Bulgaria's preparations for
Saturday's World Cup qualifier with Montenegro for talks.
Veteran keeper James, 39, another Redknapp signing
during his Pompey days, would also add strength to a squad that is
missing first-choice keeper Heurelho Gomes with a thigh injury.
Spurs are also thought to be close to taking Crystal
Palace starlet Victor Moses, 18, on loan after beating off interest
from Wigan.
