Dynamo Moscow have ruled out Arsen Zakharyan leaving the club this summer amid strong interest from Chelsea. The Blues are interested in signing the 19-year-old Russian and have held talks over the last couple of weeks over a move.
However, a statement from Dynamo has all but ruled out Zakharyan moving to Chelsea before tonight's transfer deadline. The Russian club say there are matters out of their control that are blocking the move from happening.
A statement read: "On August 25, FC Dynamo received an offer from the English football club Chelsea regarding the transfer of midfielder Arsen Zakharyan. The interest of one of the strongest clubs in the world to graduate of our club academy is a high assessment of the quality of training of young football players of Dynamo and Arsen's playing progress.
