Both clubs confirmed the deal via their official website and social media accounts on Friday.
The clubs have refused to disclose the length of the deal as Eleke is expected to put pen to paper after he passes his medical with Antlers in Japan.
“We are pleased to inform you that we have reached a basic agreement between the clubs regarding the permanent transfer of Blessing Eleke from K Beerschot VA (Belgium),” Antlers said in a statement on its website.
“In the future, the official contract is scheduled to be signed after the medical check in Japan,” the statement added.
Eleke’s brief

He joined Beerschot from FC Luzern for €1.5m in the summer of 2020. Eleke has also played for Gorica, Olimpija Ljubljana and Ashod.
Eleke will wear shirt number 19 at Kashima Antlers in the new season.
