With Spurs looking like they will be selling Robbie Keane, Dimitar Berbatov and Darren Bent, their main transfer targets have become the Russian pair of Andrei Arshavin and Roman Pavlyuchenko. According to The Independent, Spartak Moscow want £15-20m for Pavlyuchenko and Zenit St. Petersburg has said Spurs are prepared to offer £15.9m for Arshavin.

With the likely sale of Bent, Keane and Berbatov, Spurs are going to have a ton of money available for them in the transfer market. Not to mention it also looks like Paul Robinson will be moving up to Ewood Park to take over if Brad Friedel skips town for either man City or Aston Villa. Robinson would be part of a cash + player swap as Spurs are also looking to secure David Bentley from Blackburn. Looks like the next couple of weeks are going to be very interesting for Spurs, and their team come opening day could look very different from the team that Juande Ramos inherited from Martin Jol.
