Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly tracking Bologna left-back Adam Masina ahead of Danny Rose's possible exit from the club.
England international Rose has been linked with a move to Manchester United in January due to a lack of playing time under Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino.
According to The Mirror, 23-year-old Masina is on the shortlist for replacements should the club's current left-back leave.
Masina was born in Morocco but played for Italy at Under-21 level, and has been tipped for a senior call-up to the Azzurri.
The defender, who is a Serie A regular with Bologna, has 18 months left on his contract, which would factor into the fee Spurs would have to pay should they see him as a serious target.
Spanish side Sevilla are also thought to be considering a move for the player.
