Tamudo eyes England switch

20 June 2009 16:49
Raul Tamudo's agent has confirmed that the Spanish striker is currently negotiating a move to the Premier League. Tomas Duran did not reveal the identity of interested clubs but it is thought that Wigan, Hull City and Blackburn Rovers are chasing the Espanyol player. New Latics boss Roberto Martinez has already taken Jordi Gomez from Espanyol and is rumoured to be especially keen on bringing Tamudo to the JJB Stadium. The 31-year-old's agent insists that a deal has not yet been completed and his client would only leave Espanyol, who he has been with since 1996, if the money was right. "It is true there is interest but I cannot say any names. There still isn't a done deal but negotiations are in progress," Duran said in the Catalan press. "Raul will only move if given a big proposition." Tamudo has one year left on his current contract at the Barcelona-based club and will not be available for under 2million euros.
