Roman Bednar's agent has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing the West Bromwich Albion striker.

Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has already bolstered his frontline in the transfer window with the signing of Jermain Defoe from Portsmouth.

Czech forward Bednar netted an impressive 13 league goals for the Baggies last term on their route to promotion from the Championship.

The 25-year-old has struck six Premier League goals so far this campaign, and his representative, Pavel Zika, has hinted that he could leave The Hawthorns this month.

Specific

"We know of the Tottenham interest, of course, but there are also other Premier League clubs who want Roman. I cannot be more specific now," Zika told iDnes.cz.

"In terms of scoring, Bednar has joined players like (Cristiano) Ronaldo, (Frank) Lampard or (Steven) Gerrard, who have scored only a few more goals than him.

"And, as there is always interest in skilful scorers, Bednar's move from West Brom during this transfer window is not ruled out."

Spurs have yet to comment on the reports linking them with Bednar, who signed permanently for West Brom from Hearts in 2008 after spending the previous season on loan in the Midlands.
