Roman Pavlyuchenko heads for Tottenham

3 months ago 27th Aug 11:14

Roman Pavlyuchenko, a Russian international, is still in Moscow awaiting a visa.

Roman Pavlyuchenko was Russia's top scorer at Euro 2008. He also netted twice in a 2-1 win over England.

Spurs have been searching for a striker as a replacement for Robbie Keane, who joined Liverpool for £20.3m this summer, while Dimitar Berbatov looks set to leave the club before the end of the current transfer window on 1 September.

The Bulgaria striker has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United and did not feature in the 2-1 defeat at home to Sunderland on Saturday.

Spurs had originally targeted Pavlyuchenko's Russian team-mate Andrei Arshavin but the club decided not to follow up their initial interest in the Zenit St Petersburg playmaker.
