Roman Pavlyuchenko

Football Transfer News – Tottenham Hotspur striker Roman Pavlyuchenko had always been struggling to show his quality as a goal getter since he was brought to London from Spartak Moscow last year.

The Russian clearly could not compete with Jermain Defoe, Robbie Keane and Peter Crouch in Spurs’ lineup under coach Harry Redknapp.

Reports say that La Liga outfit, Valencia are targeting the player for a loan. Valencia would later on buy Pavlyuchenko after selling one of their stars, which could be Nicola Zigic, who has the same problems as Plavyunchenko in Tottenham.
