Yury Zhirkov: I haven’t talked to anyone from Dynamo Moscow

Chelsea defender Yury Zhirkov has commented on the reports about him being allegedly in talks with Dynamo Moscow.

The Russian, who has not had enough playing time during his previous two seasons in England, has denied the rumors.

«I haven’t talked to anyone from Dynamo,» stated the player to Sovetsky Sport.

«Are you ready to consider a return to Russia?»

«It’s hard to tell. On the one hand, I am a player of Chelsea, a club with rich traditions, and I will make everything possible to establish myself there. On the another hand, during my two years in London I could not boast regular performances and if there were good offers from Russia, why not consider them? However, it would be a difficult choice to make. Now there is nothing concrete and there’s, actually, nothing to talk about.»

«Are you ready to consider other leagues?»

«My situation is not so severe. Though, I wouldn’t lie, Chelsea is the primary option for me, while Russia is the secondary one.»
