Antonio Conte has reportedly asked Tottenham Hotspur to raid Serie A for January reinforcements again, this time looking to Atalanta forward Ruslan Malinovskyi.

Spurs have been very busy on the Italian market since drafting in Conte and director of sport Fabio Paratici.

They already boosted their squad with the arrival of Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur from Juventus.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, the next aim for January is to pick up Ukraine international Malinovskyi.

He has a ferocious left foot that can score from huge distances, but has fallen down the pecking order for Atalanta this season under coach Gian Piero Gasperini.

While La Dea had resisted previous offers to purchase Malinovskyi, they may well be ready to listen mid-season.

In the 2021-22 campaign, the 29-year-old had contributed six goals and five assists in just 30 Serie A games.

Atalanta purchased him from Belgian side KRC Genk for €12m in the summer of 2019.
