Tottenham open talks to bring Roma's Baptista back to Premiership

Julio Baptista's agent is to have talks with Tottenham later this week about a possible move back to the Premier League, reports the Daily Mail. Brazil midfielder Baptista spent the 2006-07 campaign on loan at Arsenal and could be heading back to north London after two seasons with Roma.

Reports in Italy claim that Roma official Frank Trimboli and Baptista's agent would have talks in London on Thursday.

Baptista's agent Juan Figer said:"Julio wants a team who will let him play more. He is now at the World Cup and when that it is over we will decide his future.

"He has a contract with Roma but everything is possible. He had a good first season but this year he has played less - although being at the World Cup at the moment with Brazil puts him in the shop window."
