Tottenham chief Fabio Paratici is targeting Juventus midfielder Aaron Ramsey.
Gazzetta dello Sport says Juventus are keen to sell Ramsey this summer and will everything they can to move on the midfielder, who is seen as a financial burden by the club.
Reports in Italy suggest that after two years in Turin, he is still unable to communicate in Italian with his teammates or the media and that has had a negative impact on his ability to settle in the country.
Ramsey is being lined up by Paratici, who is looking to bolster Tottenham's midfield ranks and the options available to new manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
Spurs' sporting director Paratici was the architect of the midfielder's free signing from Arsenal to Juventus two years ago
