Remy's agent claims client is in a different class

Tottenham would be unsuccessful if they tried swapping Roman Pavlyuchenko for Loic Remy, according to the Marseille striker's agent. Pavlyuchenko is out of Spurs boss Harry Redknapp's plans and has made just two substitute appearances in the Premier League this season. The £14million man, who was signed from Spartak Moscow in 2008, has been linked with a move to QPR, but reports also suggest Tottenham may try to strike a cash-plus-player deal with Marseille. Any agreement would in theory see Remy move to White Hart Lane, however, the France international's representative thinks the suggestion is a non-starter. Agent Frederic Guerra said in The Sun: "Loic is not a player you just swap. Besides, I don't think Marseille want to lose a Ferrari and bring in a Citroen 2CV. "Spurs have a good eye for a deal. If they contact me, I'll be obliged to pass the information on to Loic. But as his advisor I'll tell him to stay put. "He's got Euro 2012 coming up and could have 10, 15 or 20 clubs coming in for him next summer."
