Harry Redknapp rubbished all reports, which said that he has been planning to sell Roman Pavlyuchenko.
Reports released on Friday revealed that Spurs Boss was willing to sell his striker whenever transfer window reopens, as he hasn’t be impressed by the Russian’s performance.
After arriving from Spartak Moscow just before the transfer window closed, Pavlyuchenko has been able to score only 7 goals at White Hart Lane.
Redknapp insisted that he has got no plans of selling his forward, as he’s already falling short of strikers in his side.
‘That’s total rubbish,’ said Redknapp while speaking to a reporter. ‘I’ve got only 2 strikers available with me for Saturday’s game against Manchester United, as Fraizer Campbell is out with a calf strain.’
‘The 2 strikers, who will be playing, are Roman Pavlyuchenko and Darren Bent. So how will I even think of offloading anyone?’
‘Pavlyuchenko is a talented player and it’s impossible for me to let go of him at this stage.’
Again, Redknapp admitted that the club didn’t have any specific transfer target in the coming transfer seasons.
‘We’re not ready to dive-in on players and pay huge some for them, as our chairman isn’t going to allow that.’
‘We just need to wait and watch. If clubs will ask for extortionate amount for their players, who interest us, we’ll ignore them.’
Meanwhile, Redknapp confirmed that former Spurs forward, Dimitar Berbatov, will not get abused similar to Sol Campbell earlier in the season.
He said ‘What happened on that day was different and will not be repeated. Yes, he can get some stick, which he should expect, but not to the extent of what Campbell received?’
