Is there any feasible reason he'd be having a medical in Russia other than leaving the club? The MEN said this morning he could go out on loan but he is another like Wabara and Nimely in the last year of his deal and unlike them is certainly at a level where we could get a transfer fee for him. Anyway, if he's moving to Russia it will probably be one of these sides... Zenit and CSKA excluded as he isn't good enough for either unless I'm overrating them:
Anzhi Makhachkala
Spartak Moscow
Kuban Krasnodar
Rubin Kazan
Dynamo Moscow
Terek Grozny
Lokomotiv Moscow
I've searched all over, even his name in Russian... and there is nothing, zilch, yet.
