Mauricio Pochettino is wanted by Juventus and has been speaking to the club for the past ’20 days’, according to reports.
TMW have made the claims and have also said the Argentine will speak with chairman Daniel Levy to ask to leave for free, regardless of whether Spurs win the Champions League final on June 1.
Pochettino is being eyed by Juve as the successor to Massimiliano Allegri, who leaves the club at the end of the season after five years in charge.
He won the league championship in each of those five seasons, also completing four league and cup doubles during his time in Turin.
Juve also reached the Champions League final on two occasions under the former Milan boss, but finished runners-up both times.

The Express report that Allegri would be a top candidate to replace Pochettino, having been linked with a move to the Premier League in the past.
Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte are also in the running for the Juventus job, but both are considered ‘complicated’. The Serie A champions also do not believe Napoli would release Carlo Ancelotti, another of their targets.
Pochettino has previously hinted he could end his five-year spell at Spurs if they beat Liverpool in the Champions League final on June 1.
