The Daily Mail reports that Atletico Madrid attacker Luis Garcia could be set for a loan switch to Tottenham Hotspur in January.
The Spanish international has struggled to make an impact during his second spell at the Vicente Calderon, as the likes of Simao and Maxi Rodriguez are well ahead of him in the pecking order.
Thus, los Colchoneres have offered the former Liverpool favourite to a number of Premier League clubs, including Blackburn Rovers, Middlesbrough and Portsmouth.
But Spurs are thought to be the chief target, as manager Harry Redknapp has made no secret of his desire to recruit a new left-winger during the winter.
The former Pompey boss has been hounding Boro for Stewart Downing, the 24-year-old English international, but the Teesside club remain reluctant to sell one of their high-profile youth products.
And with the Lilywhites' transfer kitty looking rather empty at the minute, a six-month deal for the experienced and wily Garcia may be just the ticket.
