According to a report in the British tabloid The Sun, Tottenham Hotspur are set to raid Premier League rivals Manchester City for Martin Petrov at the end of the season.
Although Spurs have been linked with Middlesbrough's England international winger Stewart Downing of late, it is claimed that they have turned their attention to the Bulgarian to solve their problems on the left side of midfield.
The 30-year-old made an impressive start to his career with the Citizens last season, scoring five goals in 39 appearances.
However, a knee injury sustained in October 2008 has limited his playing time this campaign, with the former Atletico Madrid star featuring on just eight occasions.
It is also suggested that Petrov has become surplus to requirements at Eastlands, with Robinho ahead of him in the packing order and more big name signings expected to arrive in the summer.
Apparently, the north London-based club tried to sign him when Martin Jol was manager in 2007, but he opted to join City instead.
