Former Tottenham left-back Danny Rose is close to signing for Greek side AEK Athens.

The 32-year-old, who is an ex-England international, has been a free agent since he left Watford in September.

He played only nine times for the Hornets, but is set to join a new team in the coming days.

The Sun reports that Rose will sign a one-year deal with AEK in Greece, and may even make his debut on Saturday against Panetolikos.

Rose also spent time training at Tottenham over the summer, despite being under contract at Watford.

However, there was no suggestion that he would be offered a deal by Spurs.
