Danish football side FC Copenhagen have allowed Senegalese forward Dame N’Doye to join Lokomotiv Moscow, the president of the Russian club said Wednesday.
N’Doye, 27, helped Copenhagen to three titles and two cups in three years, becoming the club's all-time leading goalscorer along the way with 82 goals in 152 appearances.
He has 12 caps and has four goals for Senegal.
"We have not yet signed (a contract), we have just agreed with the club," Lokomotiv president Olga Smorodskaya said.
"The newcomer is yet to undergo medical examination and sign a personal contract," she said.
N'Doye played in Portugal and Greece before joining Copenhagen in 2009.
"It's a bit of a fairy tale ending here," Copenhagen sporting director Carsten V. Jensen was quoted as saying by the club website.
Lokomotiv finished seventh in the league in 2011-12 and failed to qualify for European competition, suffering five defeats and three draws in their last eight games.
In May the club announced that Portuguese coach Jose Couceiro will not have his contract renewed and was to be replaced by former Croatia coach Slaven Bilic.
Lokomotiv have been active in the summer transfer window, acquiring winger Alexander Samedov from Dynamo Moscow and Vedran Corluka from Tottenham Hotspur.
