The Sun claims that Luiz Felipe Scolari is desperate to add another creative spark to his forward-line and has asked Roman Abramovich and co to authorise a move for Dos Santos.

The Mexican magician arrived at White Hart Lane during the summer as one of Juande Ramos and Damien Comolli's many exciting purchases.

However, like most of Spurs' off-season investments, the 19-year-old has made little impact, featuring just six times so far in what has been a disastrous start to his Premier League career.

An ankle injury has severely hampered Dos Santos since he left Barcelona, and he is yet to play any part in Harry Redknapp's revolution.

Thus, the Guadelajara native could be eager for a fresh start at Stamford Bridge, where he would link up with ex-Catalan chums Juliano Belletti and Deco.

Although the source has provided no evidence to back up its claims, Dos Santos could be seen as an ideal replacement for the out-of-touch Salomon Kalou.
