Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly targeting a January deal for Napoli forward Goran Pandev, with the player thought to be keen on a move.

Reports in Italy suggest the 30-year-old will be on his way to White Hart Lane in the coming days.

Pandev, who joined Napoli on loan in 2011 before making the move permanent a year later, is believed to be concerned over his future playing opportunities at the San Paolo and is intrigued by the prospect of a chance to play in the Premier League, according to the Metro.

For Spurs, the Macedonian could prove a good stop-gap option, with Jermain Defoe off to Toronto next month and Roberto Soldado struggling to find form.

Pandev has made 16 league appearances this season, scoring six goals in the process.
