Roman Pavlyuchenko to Arsenal? Spurs striker tipped for £6m move across north London

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/footba ... z0LuyV1kWhArsenal could find a new striker just a few miles up the Seven Sisters Road.
Sensational reports in Russia claim Tottenham Hotspur have offered Roman Pavlyuchenko to their arch-rivals for just £7million.
Arsene Wenger looks like being forced into the transfer market following the £25m sale of Emmanuel Adebayor to Manchester City and injury to Samir Nasri that will keep him out for about three months.
Sportsmail reported this week that Toulouse striker Andre-Pierre Gignac is Wenger's preferred target, though Bordeaux's Marouane Chamakh, Hoffenheim's Demba Ba and Newcastle's Obafemi Martins are also in his sights.
However, Russian tabloid Tvoi Den claims Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has gone directly to Arsenal to offer 27-year-old Pavlyuchenko, who has bought a house near London following his £13.8m move from Spartak Moscow last summer.
He has been linked with Villarreal, Stuttgart, and Besiktas among others, and an associate of his says he knows nothing of apparent interest from Roma.
Viktor Kolar, who is not Pavlyuchenko's primary agent but played a part in the deal taking him to Tottenham, said: "I don't know anything. By reading the papers I learned that the club (Roma) would make a move for the player, but with regards to myself no one has made me aware of anything.
"There's nothing concrete because there have been no offers made either to the club or to the player.
"I don't have any idea how they can write that Roman will be at Roma. I spoke to the management and I know that next year he will be part of a serious project.
"He still has many years on his contract and he intends to prove also in England how much he is worth."
A move to Arsenal, as unlikely as it sounds, would see him team up with national team-mate Andrey Arshavin.
Tottenham, meanwhile, have been linked with a move for Bayern Munich hitman Luca Toni. The Italy striker's starting place is in doubt at the Allianz Arena, which is not healthy heading towards next year's World Cup finals.
The 32-year-old is said to be an alternative to Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, who is believed to be close to accepting an offer to leave Real Madrid for Stuttgart, despite interest from Tottenham.
Funnily enough I wouldnt be totally against the signing of pavlyunchenko 
I think that in a better team he would be a much better and he certainly looks to be intelligent player in terms of movement and positioning. I think that his confidence was shot to shite playing withj the scum last season and I would buy him quicker than the guy from bordeaux.

Maybe I am just clutching at straws anyway cos I am really fearful of wenger signing a 25 year old striker who we had never heard of until a few months ago, who will be fcuking off to the anc is jan and is so highly regarded that sunderland, blackburn and fulham are chasing his signiture 
It is one thing signing a young player who we have never heard of but the guy from bordeaux cannot be in that catagory at 25 years of age

Does kind of sum it up, I suppose!
That said, I don't think Drogba or Luca Toni were that highly regarded until later on in their careers, so you never know.

Damien Comolli: St. Etienne May Have To Sell Blaise Matuidi
http://goal.com/en/news/9/england/2009/ ... se-matuidiArsenal, Tottenham and Everton have been alerted by the news that St. Etienne may sell Blaise Matuidi if a big club comes in for him.
Speaking to FourFourTwo, the club's sporting director, Damien Comolli, stressed that they were still hoping to keep hold of Matuidi, saying, "He is not for sale.
"We are not looking for an offer.
"However, it would be difficult to prevent him from leaving if a top 10 European side came in for him."
Given those comments, Arsenal would appear to be the favourites, especially as Commoli was once a scout with the Gunners. He also has links with Tottenham, having spent some time as their director of football.
