Tottenham are in contact with Leicester City for Riyad Mahrez.
The London Evening Standard says Spurs have asked to be kept informed of Mahrez's position at Leicester.
The 26-year-old attacker has asked to leave but Leicester want close to £50million for him. Tottenham would not enter the race seriously unless the price dropped substantially.
The Algeria international score for the Foxes in their Premier League Asia Trophy match with West Brom on Wednesday.
Roma are also pushing to sign Mahrez this week.
