Dusan Vlahovic has been offered to Tottenham Hotspur on a free transfer, according to TEAMtalk.
What happened?
Tottenham have already completed six signings this summer, but are still looking at other deals, including a mega offer for Bournemouth star Eli Junior Kroupi.
Why it matters for Dusan Vlahovic
Vlahovic, 26, has been described as 'one of the best strikers in the world' and is searching for a new club, ideally in the Premier League, after leaving Juventus.
What comes next?
The Serbian international is attracting big interest from Turkish giants Besiktas, but Spurs are keeping a close eye on the situation as they assess their forward options for the new season.
Richarlison is expected to depart, while Randal Kolo Muani has left following the end of his loan spell.
Kroupi remains the club's top target for the striker role, which could see any move for Vlahovic put on the back burner.
But with Vlahovic available on a free transfer, it's a deal that could emerge as a bargain considering the major expenditure being put out by the ownership to strengthen other areas of the squad.
Dominic Solanke is currently the first-choice and only senior striker in the Spurs squad, but if De Zerbi is able to get his way and complete a deal to sign Kroupi, the expectation is that the Frenchman would be first choice.
Solanke would be excellent competition for him, and offer a different profile, but Vlahovic has got a much better goalscoring record throughout his career.
The likelihood is that Vlahovic's wages and the fact he wouldn't be an automatic starter are going to be a hurdle that needs overcoming.
Tottenham have confirmed the club-record deal for Sandro Tonali, worth £100m, on a six-year contract.
