£24 million Spurs target to be offered to Chelsea
Zenit St Petersburg are to offer striker Andrei Arshavin to Premier League giants Chelsea after a move to Tottenham collapsed last week. The Russian international has been linked with a move to Spurs all summer after his magnificent displays for his country in the European Championships in June. (Daily Express)
Spurs boss Juande Ramos is still believed to be keen to sign the 27-year old but Zenit are still demanding too much for the player. Now the Russian side are prepared to sell Arshavin to Luis Phillipe Scolari's Chelsea after they completed the signing of Danny Miguel from Dinamo Moscow earlier this week.
I am of the opinion that Arshavin will eventually end up at White Hart Lane. I have no doubt that after Spurs end up selling Berbatov to United they will be forced to go out and buy a quality new frontman and I believe Arshavin definetly fits the bill. I can personally see Zenit letting him go for around the £20 million mark in the end.
