New information has been received about the 2007 murder of British student Meredith Kercher, sources have confirmed to Sky News.
The sources - from Perugia prosecutor's office - said a decision had not yet been made on whether to formally open a new investigation.
The tip came from former Perugia prosecutor Giuliano Mignini, who led the original investigation into the 21-year-old's murder in the Italian university town.
According to newspaper La Stampa, Mr Mignini has reported the name of a new potential suspect who allegedly fled Italy "a few days" after the murder.
"There are indications that this person may be implicated. It's someone I've never considered before," Mr Mignini told the publication.
The former prosecutor said he was given the name from a source he considers "reliable".
Mr Mignini first told Sky News about the possibility of a culprit still at large last year.
"There may still be a culprit who took part in the murder and who has not been discovered yet," he said.
Rudy Guede, from the Ivory Coast, was convicted in 2008 of the sexual assault and murder of Ms Kercher. His DNA was found at the scene. He was released from prison in 2021 after serving 13 years of a 16-year term.
Amanda Knox - along with her ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito - was also convicted of the murder of her British roommate, before being acquitted and then fully exonerated by Italy's Supreme Court.

In an exclusive interview with Sky's Italian news channel in 2024, Ms Knox said she had been "unjustly accused for 17 years" and had not killed anyone.
Mr Mignini did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
