...we're being linked with absolutely every footballer needing a transfer
Tottenham have joined Newcastle and Swansea in the hunt for out-of-favour Hoffenheim winger Ryan Babel.
The ex-Liverpool wide man has been told he can quit the German outfit this summer, after falling out with the club's coaching staff during pre-season.
The 25-year-old has been omitted from the Hoffenheim squad for their Austria training camp, and will now stay behind and train with the reserve team, as he bids to find himself a new club.
Newcastle and Swansea have already expressed an interest in singing the Dutch flyer, and now reports in Holland claim Tottenham are set to join the race.
Hoffenheim, who beat Spurs to Babel's signature in 2007, are ready to take a hefty hit on the £8million they paid Liverpool, by listening to offers of around £3million.
Babel is said to be desperate to return to the Premier League, and is willing to take a cut from his £50,000-a-week wages to seal a switch

RVP will be househunting in Manchester at the time it's launched, so the missile will have to be about 200 miles off target to affect him

Pav had great composure in front of goal. If only he had Defoe's speed & will-power to score.
Pavlyuchenkdefoe would have been a brilliant combination.

tbh... he isnt the worst player in the world.. but i would like to think that we could find a better player as our reserve winger.... hoilett would have been perfect imo... but we didnt bother to persue him.

Pavlydefoenko is a better combination.

Agreed Chronic - he'd be a waste of a squad place. Hoillet or one of them foreign types with an exotic-sounding name... Gorgonzola or summat
