Zigic Spurs talk rejected

Zigic Spurs talk rejected

Nikola Zigic's agent has dismissed reports linking Tottenham with a move for the giant striker.

Recent reports have claimed Spurs were lining up a surprise move for the Valencia forward when the transfer window reopens in January.

The Spanish side are understood to be willing to listen to offers for Zigic as they look to trim their wage bill and bring in much-needed funds.

However, Zigic's representative, Milan Calasan, has told skysports.com that he has not been contacted by anyone from White Hart Lane regarding the Serbian.

"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."

Zigic's agent also revealed the 29-year-old had rejected overtures from Zenit St Petersburg and that a move to Roma was unlikely.

"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."
