Juventus are reportedly willing to cover a chunk of Paulo Dybala's wages in order to force through his proposed move to Tottenham Hotspur before today's 5pm deadline.
Spurs are understood to have agreed a £64.4m deal for the Argentine attacker and are also willing to meet his £350,000-a-week wage demands, which would make him the club's highest-paid player.
However, the Evening Standard reports that they will be helped out by Juventus with regards to the wages as the Italian champions are desperate to offload him before the window closes.
Juve will pay a lump sum in order to help Spurs cover Dybala's salary, although there are still issues over his image rights, which are understood to have been a major reason behind the collapse of his transfer to Manchester United.
Spurs are also pushing to complete a £55m deal for Real Betis midfielder Giovani Lo Celso on deadline day, which would take their overall expenditure this summer to almost £200m.
