Chelsea target Marcos Senesi is reportedly in advanced negotiations to join Tottenham Hotspur on a free transfer this summer.
Spurs have had a dreadful league campaign, and they are presently languishing 18th in the standings with just 30 points on the board.
The north London side are two points adrift of safety and need a huge turnaround in the final six games to avoid a shock relegation.
The Athletic now report that Spurs are in advanced talks with Senesi's entourage and have convinced him to join this summer if they beat the drop.
It remains to be seen whether Spurs avoid a surprise relegation. They are looking increasingly likely to drop down to the Championship.
Spurs have a home game against Brighton & Hove Albion this weekend. It is a must-win to avoid losing further ground in the relegation race.
Nottingham Forest, who are three points ahead of Spurs, have a winnable fixture against Burnley. West Ham United, who are two points in front, may also fancy getting something from their trip to Crystal Palace.
