EX-TOTTENHAM striker Vincent Janssen is wanted by Marc Overmars and Mark van Bommel at Antwerp.
The Holland striker, who turned 27 on Wednesday, plays for Mexican side Monterrey after leaving Spurs in 2019.
But Janssen is set for a return to Europe with the Belgian club, who have ex-Arsenal winger Overmars as technical and former Netherlands midfielder Van Bommel as coach.
Janssen said: "There has been contact with Marc Overmars and Mark van Bommel. I hope we get out, but I can't say more about it.
"I had three great years in Mexico and I'm still happy there. But we'll see in the coming days."
Janssen started for Louis van Gaal's Holland in their 3-2 Nations League win over Wales on Tuesday night and hopes to make the Dutch squad for the World Cup.

He added: "I'll help the team. I was important in two goals. This was also what the coach had indicated: fighting for the ball and the team.
"I tried to be a strong point of contact. It always takes some getting used to, because the level is quite high, but I can be important in my way.
"Did I pass my exam? That should be determined by the national coach. I tried my best."
Recruiting 18-cap Janssen would be a coup for Overmars, who took over at Antwerp in March a month after resigning in shame as Ajax's director of football.

The former Barcelona superstar, 49, apologised for sending inappropriate messages to female colleagues.
Overmars had been in the job for ten years and had just signed a new deal until 2026.
But as he quit Ajax, he said in a statement: "I am ashamed.
"I was confronted with reports about my behaviour. And how this has come across to others… I apologise.
"Certainly for someone in my position, this behaviour is unacceptable. I now see that too. But it is too late. I see no other option but to leave Ajax.
"This also has a major impact on my private situation. That is why I ask everyone to leave me and my family alone."
