That is perfect financially for Tottenham, who are working with a restricted budget after failing to qualify for the Champions League.
Paratici is a big fan of Simy, who has scored 40 league goals in the past two seasons.
He is now at the peak of his powers and therefore wants to make a step up for the final stretch of his career.
There has been interest from several Serie A clubs and Italy is where the player would prefer to stay, per his agent.

"Simy has a very interesting market in England, there are at least a couple of interested clubs in the Premier League,” Vincenzo Morabito told TuttoMonza.
"His preference is for foreign countries, eventually we will consider offers from the upper-middle-range Serie A club.
"We are therefore working mainly on the English market, where the clubs are economically more solid and can offer important figures both to Crotone and to the player. He deserves a championship like that.
"Let's see what happens in the next few weeks. At the moment, I repeat, the most concrete track is the one that leads to the Premier League."
