The agent of Tottenham striker Roman Pavlyuchenko has confirmed the interest of Sporting Lisbon.
Pavlyuchenko was a target of Lokomotiv Moscow earlier in 2010 but, according to his representative, Thomas Zorn, Sporting now want to agree a loan move and are attempting to reach a financial agreement.
"Negotiations exist with Tottenham for the loan of the player but I think that this is complicated by money," Zorn told Portuguese media.
"Pavlyuchenko has a price and the money situation of Sporting makes it very difficult to reach an agreement.
"The contact continues but at this moment the forward is with Spurs. If Tottenham reject the player, it is clear that Sporting would be a good destination."
