Udinese believe they can land Tottenham winger Giovani dos Santos ahead of Atletico Madrid and Sevilla.
The People says Udinese, hoping to dump Arsenal out of the Champions League this week, have offered the Mexican an escape route from White Hart Lane.
And after being loaned out to Ipswich, Galatasaray and Racing Santander in the past two years, 22-year-old Dos Santos is eager to settle in Italy.
Spurs are keen to get him off the wage bill as they bid to open up space in the squad for new signings and Dos Santos is waiting to see if the two clubs can agree on a fee.
