Tottenham are among several Premier League clubs waiting to hear whether Los Angeles Galaxy will release David Beckham this month for a loan deal.
Manager Harry Redknapp says the 35-year-old is keen to join Spurs, while Newcastle and Blackburn are interested.
The Major League Soccer season resumes on 15 March, meaning Beckham could play up to 11 games in a short-term deal.
"Spurs are one of many clubs interested - but we have not yet had detailed talks," said a spokesman for Beckham.
"At the moment we are waiting on the decision of LA Galaxy with regards to a loan move. The loan would be a short one until the start of the MLS season.
"David would then return and play a full season with the Galaxy.
"The loan is part of David's desire to keep fit and make himself available for England again."
Former England captain Beckham had short-term spells on loan at Italian club AC Milan in 2009 and 2010, with the moves designed to improve his chances of being picked to play for his country.
And England manager Fabio Capello, who last fielded Beckham in the 3-0 win over Belarus in October 2009, has recently urged the midfielder to return to Europe to prove his fitness.
