Juventus have stolen a march on Tottenham Hotspur in the race to sign Internacional and Brazil striker Leandro Damiao, according to talkSPORT.
Officials for the Turin club have reportedly arrived in Brazil to strike a deal for the £12m-rated striker.
Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has openly courted the 22-year-old since the summer, while Arsenal have also been credited with an interest.
Juve boss Antonio Conte has moved to the head of the queue, however, and is prepared to open the bidding at £18m.
Damiao has scored 52 goals in 86 appearances for the Brazilian club.
