But move for Inter team-mate Adriano is dead
Tottenham have made an enquiry about Inter Milan striker Hernan Crespo after ending their interest in Adriano, Sky Sports News understands.
Harry Redknapp has been linked with a whole host of players in the January transfer window, with the Spurs chief having had a bid for Craig Bellamy rejected.
West Ham are adamant in their stance that the Welshman will not be sold and it now appears Redknapp is forming a back-up plan.
Adriano was mooted as a target but it is Inter team-mate Crespo that Redknapp is keen to bring to White Hart Lane.
The Argentine hit-man is well acquainted with the Premier League having experienced an indifferent spell in England while at Chelsea.
Redknapp is keen to bring in a proven goalscorer, to possibly partner new boy Jermain Defoe, and it would appear Crespo could provide a useful stop-gap solution.
Earlier on Friday, Inter chief Jose Mourinho told Sky Sports News he was keen to sign Tottenham's out-of-favour midfielder Jermaine Jenas.
