Le Foot — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 13:18:15 +0000

Blackburn’s impressive young star Junior Hoilett could be set for a shock move to Germany in the summer instead of staying in England. Sources claim that FC Bayern are interested in him and have made contact with his father for a free transfer switch at the end of the current season. Hoilett’s contract at Blackburn is over at the end of the 11/12 season and a move to Bayern will see him join his younger brother Jaineil, who plays for Mainz, in Germany.

Hoilett was a reported target for both Spurs and Liverpool in the winter window but Blackburn slapped a heavy price tag on him in order to keep him in their fight to avoid relegation. Rovers were thrashed 7-1 by Arsenal in their last game.

Le Foot — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 07:08:52 +0000

The fee Lokomotiv paid for Pavlyuchenko’s services was not revealed, but sources have it to be around the £8m mark.

With the Russian window still open, Russian skipper Andrei Arshavin is also expected to follow his team-mate back to Russia. Anzhi and Zenit have already expressed their interest in taking Arshavin back and with his popularity at the Emirates at an all time low, the playmaker may chose to go back to Russia to reinvigorate himself ahead of the 2012 European Championships.

Wenger is said to prefer Arshavin to stay, but the final decision may lie with the Russian himself.

Tevez ponders Russia switch

Le Foot — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 09:27:40 +0000

After failing to get a deal done in the winter transfer window, want away Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez is reportedly pondering a switch to the Russian Premier League. The RPL’s transfer window doesn’t close for another three weeks and with cash rich oil magnates fueling the ambitions of clubs in the country, Tevez’s hefty salary demands will not be a stumbling block in the deal.

A move to Russia looks like Tevez’s best chance of regular football before the summer. He was linked with AC Milan, Inter, PSG and Liverpool but none of those moves materialised during the January window.

Anzhi, who already have Roberto Carlos and Samuel Eto’o on their books, are many people’s favourites to sign Tevez if he agrees for a move eastward to Russia.
