The 27-year-old Romanian International, who is currently available on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Schalke 04, has been linked with the likes of Arsenal,Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United in the past few weeks.<br />

However, his agent Becali has confirmed that a switch to Spurs has "failed".<br /><br />Becali told Dolce Sport: <em>"Marica's transfer to Tottenham failed. Rayo [Vallecano] cannot pay the salary, nor can they approach half the salary that he had in Schalke.<br /><br />"Very few teams in Spain can pay well, but Marica is now in Madrid."</em>
