Serbian striker Nikola Zigic’s agent has denied that Tottenham are planning a January swoop for the Valencia striker. It’s been claimed in the media that Spurs were lining up a move for the towering striker. However his agent Milan Calasan has revealed hes heard nothing from Tottenham.
“I have heard nothing from Tottenham, no-one from Tottenham has contacted me about Zigic,” Calasan told skysports.com.
“I think any move to Tottenham would be impossible as they already have (Peter) Crouch there so I don’t think they would also want Zigic.”
The 29 year-old is currently out of favour at Valencia and was loaned out to Racing Santander last season, where he proved a success as he finished the season as Racing’s top scorer. His agent has also revealed that the striker has turned down a move to Russian side Zenit St Petersburg and doesn’t think Italian side Roma could afford the striker. “Zenit St Petersburg were interested in Zigic, but the player did not want to go there,” added Calasan.
“Roma have also shown an interest, but I am not sure they have the money to buy Zigic so we will wait and see what happens.”
