Described as an energetic attacking defender, Jeahze is likely to fit into the style of play adopted by Postecoglou this season.
The finishing touches are now being applied to the overall package and the in-demand player is expected to move to Scotland when the summer window opens.
Jeahze, who was born in Sweden but qualifies for Iraq through his parents, began his senior career with IFK Norrköping in 2016.

It is understood Postecoglou’s decision to move early for Jeahze has paid dividends with Hammarby already resigned to losing him this summer.
