Spartak Moscow desperate to re-sign Spurs striker Roman Pavlyuchenko
Spartak Moscow have not given up hope of signing Tottenham Hotspur striker Roman Pavlyuchenko by the end of today.
The Russia striker's former club were knocked back in a bid to re-sign him on loan last week, but have entered 11th-hour talks with Spurs following a 3-0 weekend defeat at home to title rivals Rubin Kazan.
They are reluctant to meet the £10.5million price-tag, which was also the stumbling block that led Zenit St Petersburg to signing Mateja Kezman on loan from Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday.
Zenit and Lokomotiv Moscow are both monitoring the situation, butSpartak are in the driving seat to take back a player they sold for£13.8m last summer.
Meanwhile, Ricardo Rocha, who was released by Spurs at the end of the season, is set to sign for Standard Liege.
