Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Roman Pavlyuchenko has emerged as a possible January transfer target for Reading.
The 30-year-old has struggled to make a mark at Spartak Moscow this season following an £8m summer move from Spurs.
Reading could now try to land the Russian in the New Year, according to The Mirror.
Pavlyuchenko scored 21 goals in 71 games during a four-year spell at White Hart Lane.
