Tottenham are eyeing a move for Lazio ace Mauro Zarate.
The Mirror says the Argentine striker, 23, was a big hit on loan at Birmingham after arriving in January 2008 from Al Sadd in Qatar.
But Brum were relegated and could not afford to keep the exciting attacking talent who scored four goals in 14 games.
Now a return to the English top-flight is on the cards for the diminutive striker with Spurs eyeing the ace.
Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp almost took Zarate to Portsmouth previously.
The striker is out of favour at Lazio and can leave on loan for a fee of around £1million.
Zarate's representative Barry McIntosh said: "There is quite a bit of interest in Mauro.
"Everyone saw what he did at Birmingham where he scored four goals in a relegated side.
"Harry has like Mauro for sometime so it is a possibility."
