Atalanta winger Ruslan Malinovskyi is eager to move to Tottenham in the coming days.
Atalanta have set an asking price of £15m for the attacking midfielder.
And the midfielder is interesting Spurs, which see him as a potential replacement for Valencia target Bryan Gil.
Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano told his Here We Go podcast that the player "dreams" of a transfer to Spurs and "would love to join" manager Antonio Conte's ranks.
The midfielder has also raised eyebrows with his social media activity. Malinovskyi has seen links to Tottenham further intensify after he liked a post celebrating Spurs' 1-0 win over Wolves last Saturday.
