[edit] Career

[edit] Club career

Pavlyuchenko made his first team debut for Dynamo Stavropol in 1999. He moved to Rotor Volgograd in 2000 where he stayed for three years. He then moved to Spartak Moscow in spring 2003. Since then, Pavlyuchenko has been the most prolific goalscorer for the club. His goalscoring, together with his loyalty to the "rhombik" (the club's emblem), earned him much respect and appreciation from the Army of Red-White Fans.

Tony Pulis is interested in taking him to the fortress Britannia Stadium.

[edit] International career

In 2005, Pavlyuchenko was first called into the Russia national football team and since then has been consistently earning caps at national level.

[edit] Euro 2008

Pavluchenko was in the spotlight when he scored both goals in Russia's 2-1 victory a crucial Euro 2008 qualification match against England. He was named in Guus Hiddink's 23-man squad for Euro 2008. He scored a late consolation goal in Russia's loss to Spain in their opening match of the campaign. However, despite making the score 3-1 following David Villa's hatrick, Cesc Fàbregas made the score 4-1 to Spain in the 91st minute.
