Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has admitted that he hopes striker Roman Pavlyuchenko will stay at the club.
The Russian, who scored the winner in Spurs' 1-0 win against Sunderland on Sunday afternoon, has been linked with a move away from White Hart Lane.
"I'd like to keep him here. He's a fantastic player, he's a great striker of the ball and when he's on his game he's top drawer," Redknapp told Sky Sports News.
"It's just difficult, you've got Rafa [Rafael van der Vaart], you've got [Jermain] Defoe, you've got Pav and you've got [Emmanuel] Adebayor and you can't play them all."
Redknapp's side host Chelsea in the Premier League on Thursday evening.
