Juventus want Christian Eriksen and could tempt Tottenham into a January sale by offering Adrien Rabiot in exchange.
Eriksen has long been linked to Real Madrid, who despite going cold on the player at the end of last summer, seems like the likeliest destination.
The Frenchman is less preferable in Maurizio Sarri's eyes than the likes of Aaron Ramsey, Miralem Pjanic and even Sami Khedira.
In order to avoid battling Real Madrid for Eriksen's services, Juve are willing to trade in the 24-year-old Rabiot to secure the Dane in January, according to Le10Sport (via The Mirror).
Questions, however, remain over Rabiot's attitude and manageability after he spent half of his last season at PSG on the sidelines because of a contract dispute.
Mauricio Pochettino might be reluctant to burden the risk of a player who could further a destabilise an already struggling Spurs squad.
