Roberto Mancini has set his sights on Leandro Damiao.

The Brazilian international is regarded as one of the hottest properties in his homeland, and has enhanced his reputation during the Olympic Games.

Tottenham Hotspur are long-term admirers of the 23-year-old striker, and Andre Villas-Boas hopes to lure him from Internacional before the window closes.

However, the Londoners face formidable competition from Premier League champions City, who are set to bid £18million to land Damiao.
