Tottenham Hotspur reportedly hold a long-standing interest in Southampton forward Danny Ings.
At a time when the club requires suitable backup to Harry Kane, manager Jose Mourinho is currently assessing his options in the transfer market.
Over the weekend, the Portuguese refused to dismiss suggestions that he is open to signing Trabzonspor forward Alexander Sorloth.
However, according to football.london, thought has been given to a speculative approach for Ings before the end of the summer window.
During two seasons at St Mary's, Ings has contributed 29 goals from 63 appearances in the Premier League, form which has earned the 28-year-old a recall to the England squad.
Nevertheless, Spurs feel that they will be unable to tempt Southampton into a sale at this stage of the year.
