Vieri In Shock Spurs Link The 33-year-old is available on a free transfer after a season with Atalanta, but while numerous clubs in Serie A have been linked with his signature it could be a Premiership outfit that lands the veteran.

Tottenham are known to be in the market for a striker, despite their current healthy crop of forwards, and it is claimed that they have contacted Vieri's agent about a move to London.

Martin Jol is actively targeting Darren Bent, but with Charlton playing hard-ball over his transfer fee it is possible that the Dutchman is examining alternative options as he looks to replace the soon to be departing Mido.

Vieri, who made his name with Inter Milan where he enjoyed the most of his success in a much travelled career, has already been linked with Genoa, Napoli and Palermo this summer.

Tottenham are aiming to push their way into the top four having finished fifth in the past two seasons and may see the former Italian international as the man to make the difference.
