Tottenham Hotspur could make a bid to take over the Olympic Stadium in east London after the 2012 Games, according to reports.
The BBC claims the club has held informal talks with the Olympic Park Legacy Company (OPLC), though it has not yet submitted a bid for the 80,000-seat Stratford stadium.
West Ham is the only club to have officially bid for the venue, offering to reduce the capacity to 60,000.
Tottenham is planning to build a new 56,000-seat stadium adjacent to its current White Hart Lane ground but has faced opposition from local police and national heritage groups.
The BBC reports that Tottenham has made contact with the OPLC, but the club's officials deny any official approach.
A spokeswoman said: "Tottenham Hotspur has not, to date, submitted a bid for the Olympic Stadium and, all things proceeding well with our current plans to build a new stadium within Tottenham, we see no need to."
