The Russian striker, who completed a deadline day transfer to Lokomotiv Moscow from Tottenham Hotspur, denies exchanging harsh words with the Spurs management.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roman-Pavlyuchenko-c31639 has become the third Russian player to return to the Russian Premier League in six months, after failing to settle in the Premier League.
The 30-year-old has now joined the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Yuri-Zhirkov-c37683, who had earlier joined Spartak Moscow and Anzhi Makhachkala, respectively.
According to the North London club, the deal was finalized on the transfer deadline day. However, neither club disclosed the transfer fee involved.
If speculations are to be believed, Pavlyuchenko parted company with the London club for 7.5 million Euros.
"We thank Roman for his contribution to the team and wish him every success in the future" Tottenham’s official website said.
Reports in England suggest that Pavlyuchenko had a few words of disagreement with the London club’s assistant manager, Kevin Bond, before leaving the White Hart Lane.
However, the Russian Cup winner has denied such reports, revealing that he always maintained good relations with the management.
"There has been no conflict! I had a typical working conversation, well, maybe a little tighter than usual. But I did not quarrell with the assistant coach. I just wanted to know where our head coach is at the moment because I
have not seen him much while training.
“To live with a UK residence permit is always good but above all I want is to play football.” The former Rotor Volgograd player was quoted as saying.
Pavlyuchenko, who joined spurs from Spartak Moscow back in 2008, failed to adjust to life in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749. Though he became a fan favourite after scoring some memorable goals, Pavlyuchenko failed to live up to expectations in the following
years.
Furthermore, frequent injuries troubled the Russian striker during his stay with the English outfit. Consequently, he decided to leave the Spurs fearing for his national team place.
