Stuttgart offer Pavlyuchenko lifeline
Tottenham Hotspur, 13:02, June 20, 2009 ,
Stuttgart have confirmed they are interested in ending Roman Pavlyuchenko's Tottenham nightmare, his agent has revealed.
The giant Russia international has failed to justify his big price tag since arriving from Spartak Moscow 12 months ago and is expected to be a high-profile casualty if manager Harry Redknapp brings in new signings over the summer.
"I am busy with the search for a new club for Roman," Oleg Artemov said in the Daily Mirror.
Stuttgart have been in touch about the 27-year-old but Artemov has confirmed no agreement is in place for his transfer away from White Hart Lane.
He added: "Earlier this week I received a phone call from the Stuttgart manager who officially confirmed their interest in Pavlyuchenko.
"But it is still too early to begin intensive negotiations. A lot is going to depend on the player's opinion and that of Tottenham.
"What I know for sure is that Tottenham are going to lose money and sell Pavlyuchenko just anywhere for any money.
"I talked to (Spurs chairman) Daniel Levy. He told me that he doesn't think Roman has become cheaper now.
"Forwards are always in short supply in football and their value shouldn't drop even in the credit crunch times."
