Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas is chasing Malaga midfielder Santi Cazorla. AS says AVB sees Cazorla as a replacement for Luka Modric, who is wanted by Real Madrid.
Spurs were beaten by Malaga last summer to the capture of Cazorla from Villarreal and have since maintained their interest.
Tottenham are willing to match Cazorla's wages to bring him to London once Modric is sold.
