Arsenal flop Chamakh NOT on Tottenham's radar

Tottenham are NOT interested in signing Arsenal misfit Marouane Chamakh, talkSPORT can reveal.

Chamakh has scored just eight goals in 40 appearances since joining Arsenal on a free transfer from Bordeaux in 2010.

Despite the sale of Robin van Persie to Manchester United, he was not even on the bench for Saturday's Premier League opener against Sunderland at the Emirates, with summer signings Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud now ahead of him in the pecking order.

Reports have since suggested that Chamakh could be heading across north London in a shock move to rivals Tottenham.

But talkSPORT have been told that, while Andre Villas-Boas is desperate to add to his striking options, the Spurs boss will not be making a move for the misfiring Moroccan.

The club are still hopeful of signing Manchester City striker Emanuel Adebayor, though, with talks ongoing over a permanent deal for the Togo international after his impressive loan spell at White Hart Lane last season.
