Tottenham are looking to sign Andre Gomes from Barcelona this month.
The Lilywhites were beaten by Chelsea to the signature of Ross Barkley this month and Mauricio is still keen to add an extra body to his midfield this month.
Gomes has had an underwhelming season this time around as he has made just 2 league starts under Ernesto Valverde so far.
The Catalans recently completed the signing of Philippe Coutinho from Liverpool, a move that has automatically pushed Gomes down the pecking order.
Pochettino tried to sign the Portuguese star last summer, but he failed as Gomes decided to stay and fight for his place at Camp Nou.
That fight has not been successful and he is now looking for a move away.
With the World Cup in six months time, Gomes knows a lack of first-team action would see him miss out on the showpiece as the Portuguese national team is blessed with several top midfielders.
Pochettino wants to reduce the burden on the shoulders of Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli with the signing of Gomes.
