Tottenham Hotspur's record signing Roberto Soldado could be used as a makeweight in a deal to bring Porto striker Jackson Martinez to the club, according to reports.

The 29-year-old striker scored his first Premier League goal since March in Sunday's 2-1 win over Everton, but has struggled to justify his £27m price tag since joining from Valencia last summer.

A full Spanish international, Soldado could be used to tempt Porto to part with Colombian striker Martinez, according to The Metro.

Martinez has scored 74 goals in 112 appearances for the Portuguese giants, having previously turned out for Chiapas and Medellin.
