Reports on Friday suggested Harry Redknapp was willing to offload Tottenham striker Roman Pavlyuchenko when the transfer window opens after failing to be impressed by the Russian. "That is absolute rubbish," insisted Redknapp. "I have got two strikers available on Saturday, Fraizer Campbell can't play as he can't play against Manchester United and he has a calf strain.
"The two strikers I have got here are Darren Bent and Roman Pavlyuchenko so how can I be offloading anybody?
"He (Pavlyuchenko) is a quality player and I don't know where that report has come from."
Redknapp also admitted the club will not be held to ransom over any transfer targets when the transfer window reopens.
"We are not going to dive in and pay silly money for players, the chairman won't do that," added Redknapp.
"We have just got to wait and see. If people ask extortionate fees for players we are interested in then we won't sign anybody."
