Corluka: Spurs target

Skysports.com understands Tottenham are closing in on a deal for Vedran Corluka.

Despite an excellent debut campaign in English football last season at Manchester City, it looks as though the talented Croatian could be on the move.

Free-spending Spurs are in the market for defensive cover following Pascal Chimbonda's move to Sunderland and see Corluka as an ideal addition.

City boss Mark Hughes insisted earlier on Thursday that Corluka has not been given permission to speak to Spurs, but did concede interest in the player had been lodged from other clubs.

However, skysports.com has learnt a deal could soon be struck as both clubs engage in discussions.

Evo čitan sutra u SN naslov, Luka Modrić: moje najtee pripreme...i onda tek skužiš kako se u nas trenira...i zašto nemamo snage u europi...

prvenstvo pocinje za nedelju dana i mislim da bi za sve klubove bilo dobro da sto pre obave transfere koje zele, jer je vremena sve manje. Juande kao da se igra Championship managera, evo sad citam da hoce Dean Ashtona napadaca West Hama i to nudi cak 20 miliona funti, pa spanskog golmana veterana Cesara da sedi na glupo Gomesu...

Da žele Dean Ashtona je čista medijska patka... ne brini, neće se dogoditi...

Zenit have raised Arshavin's price tag to a reported 27 million euros, with the 27-year-old now fearing he has been priced out of the market.

"This price tag has frightened everybody off," Arshavin told Sport Express.

"Only Tottenham have dared continue negotiations. But as it stands nothing has developed.

"My desire to leave is still as strong, but there is nothing more to do now other than hope for a miracle.

"I understand perfectly well that if I don't move on now, I probably never will.

"I'm just hoping that one fine morning the bosses at Gazprom will wake up in a good mood and say: 'We've had enough of Arshavin's whining - let's let him go'."

With the prospect of his dream move to Barcelona over for now after the Catalans signed Alexander Hleb, Arshavin has turned his attention to the English Premier League and reiterated his desire to work with Spurs coach Juande Ramos.

"When Tottenham made their offer I was sceptical at first," Arshavin continued.

"But after Ramos called me personally and told me that that they were selling Robbie Keane and that he wanted me in his side, the situation changed.

"When a coach shows an interest in you, especially such a renowned and strong coach, then that is already half of the success of any move.

"I also like the way Tottenham play, so I agreed in principle to join.

"A short while later a representative from Spurs arrived to discuss my personal terms and contract.

"The discussion didn't take long and we agreed on everything quickly. Only then did my asking price go up.

"Tottenham have a decent squad with (Luka) Modric, (Dimitar) Berbatov and other players, and the club is fully capable of fighting for a place in the Champions League.

"The main thing is to try my strengths in a league like the English Premier League and play against the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal on a regular basis rather than once every five years."
