Pavlyuchenko confirms Tottenham exit

Roman Pavlyuchenko has admitted that he has given up all hope of returning to the first team setup at Tottenham. The Russian has found himself more of a bit part player this year, as Emmanuel Adebayor continues to impress at White Hart Lane.

The 29 year old has been linked with a return to his homeland, Russia, as part of a 4.5m GBP deal.


The forward said: "I have to do something in the transfer period. We're ahead of the European Championship.


"If I don't change my club then Euro 2012 will be played without me.


"I was fighting and fighting but it was useless. Does Redknapp believe in me? Now I don't think so.


"I do the training as good as the others. I do everything with 100 per cent effort.


"I don't cry and I don't say that everybody is bad but I'm a good footballer.


"If I score in each game then I can play but it's not a reality to score in each game. That's all.


"Will I ask the club to sell me in December? Yes, it's 100 per cent."
