Tottenham will make a second bid to sign West Bromwich Albion striker Saido Berahino, sources has told ESPN FC.
After an initial offer of around £18 million was rejected by the Baggies on Tuesday, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy will step up his bid to land Berahino, 22, who was called up to the senior England squad for the first time last season.
West Brom chairman Jeremy Peace suggested his club were keen to hang on to Berahino during this transfer window, but his comments also appeared to open the door for a sale to Tottenham if the right offer was presented.
"I know we are living in an age where no club can say 'never' about the possibility of selling a player," Peace said in a statement on Tuesday. "We have no interest in selling Saido, which is what I have told Daniel.
"The prospect of selling Saido is simply not on our agenda. We are going forward with Saido very much in our plans and still striving to add players to improve the balance of our squad."
West Brom boss Tony Pulis has also suggested his club would sell Berahino if the price is right.
"If there's an unbelievable offer for Saido, then nobody turns it down," he is quoted as saying by The Guardian. "Tottenham didn't turn it down for Gareth Bale, Manchester United never turned it down for Cristiano Ronaldo, you just don't do it.
"To say he's not going to go is wrong for me but it's going to have to be something special. We don't want him to go, I personally don't think it's right for him to go. He's playing regularly here and he's almost the main man."
Tottenham are eager to add to a forward line lacking depth following the departure of Roberto Soldado to Villarreal, while Mauricio Pochettino has hinted that Emmanuel Adebayor is no longer part of his plans.
Harry Kane is Tottenham's primary striker -- with the arrival of Clinton Njie adding to the options available to Pochettino -- but the Argentine is keen to bolster his attacking options with another Europa League campaign coming up.
