Vasco da Gama are eyeing Aston Villa midfielder Philippe Coutinho.
The Brazil international is currently playing on-loan in Qatar with Al Duhail.
Sport says Vasco are exploring the prospect of bringing the midfielder back to the club next month.
Coutinho came through the system at Vasco before leaving for Europe with Inter Milan.
Barcelona are reportedly due 50% of any profit Villa make from the sale of Coutinho, who signed for Villa last year.
