Spartak Moscow, QPR fight for Roman Pavlyuchenko

Tottenham forward Roman Pavlyuchenko is at the centre of a tug-of-war between Spartak Moscow and Queens Park Rangers, according to Metro.

The Russian side have already admitted that they are keen on bringing the 29-year-old back to the club in January.

The £8m-rated striker has also been offered to QPR, however, with R's boss Neil Warnock prepared to match his wages at Spurs.

Spartak sold Pavlyuchenko to Tottenham in 2008, but the striker has found himself alienated at the club this season.
