Roman Pavlyuchenko is reportedly in talks with Tottenham Hotspur over a new contract, according to his agent.
Spurs fans have had to put up with a year of speculation reporting another destination for the luxury Russian, but it seems the board are now willing to extend the striker’s stay at White Hart Lane.
A year ago, Pavlyuchenko was close to moves to Birmingham or back home to Russia, but instead played a pivotal role in Spurs clinching a place in this season’s Champions League.
Whilst speculation has remained that he could be moved on, Oleg Artemov has hinted that his client could be set to sign a new deal.
“Redknapp wouldn’t sell Pavlyuchenko now.
“The same can be said of the chairman (Daniel) Levy.
“Three months ago, Levy suggested Roman sign a new contract on improved terms. We are in negotiations and discussing the details.”
Artemov also suggested there would be a shake up of Spurs’ striking options, even if his client is set to remain with the club.
