Roman Pavlyuchenko has been a revelation at Euro 2008. The Russian striker impressed with his movement and positioning which compensated for his less-than-clinical finishing. Now, the Russian striker seems to be in-demand for clubs across Europe, but his club, Spartak Moscow, will not sell to just anybody.

We have received two offers. One of them is from an English team. Said Sergei Shalvo, and official of Spartak Moscow, according to The Daily Mirror.
Since it s not a team playing in European Champions League we are more likely than not to reject their offer.
Tottenham are desperate to …
Sepp Blatter has called on FIFA s member organisations to follow its lead on anti-corruption and help make football fully transparent.
The organisation was embroiled in a bribery scandal in 2011 when Blatter s presidential rival, Mohamed Bin Hammam, was accused of offering members of the Executive Committee cash in exchange for votes.
Bin Hammam was banned from the sport for life following a number of failed appeals, while CONCACAF president Jack Warner, who had been the subject of a number of accusations over corruption throughout his 11-year reign, resigned his post.
It was the latest in a long line of accusations to be levelled at football s governing body, with some stretching back to when Joao Havelange ousted Stanley Rous as president in 1974.

Market: AC Milan win and over 1.5 goals
Odds: 21/20 @
Smelling a real chance to extend their buffer at the top of the Serie A table, AC Milan will make the trip to a struggling Sampdoria on Sunday night.
Starting with the hosts, throwing away the lead last weekend and having to settle for a point against relegation scrappers Torino, Sampdoria have rather drastically struggled after a stunning run during October. Now continuing to freefall down the Serie A table and enduring by far their most worrying rut of the season so far, former Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri has seen his side fail to win any of their last five matchups across all competitions. With their recent issues highlighted by a 3-1 drumming at the hands of Genoa in the Coppa Italia a fortnight ago, S…

Sassuolo secured a sixth-place finish and kept their chances to qualify for next season s Europa League alive with a season-closing 3-1 Serie A victory over 10-man Inter on Saturday.
Eusebio Di Francesco s side have never played European football before but will now be hoping for a Juventus victory over AC Milan in next weekend s Coppa Italia final, which would be enough for them to seal a continental berth.
Milan s defeat to Roma ultimately made Sassuolo s victory irrelevant in the race for sixth, but that result was not known when Matteo Politano s deflected strike put the home side in the box seat after six minutes at Citta del Tricolore.
Lorenzo Pellegrini doubled the advantage with another goal against the run of play before Rodrigo Palacio finally got Inte…

We need way more and not less competitions, we want football to develop worldwide.
