Arsenal target joins Zenit St.Petersburg
Russian international Aleksandr Kokorin has reportedly sealed a winter move to Zenit St.Petersburg.
The 24-year-old had been heavily linked with a switch to the Emirates in recent months, before the Gunners pulled out of the chase.
Sources now reveal that Russian giants Zenit has completed a double swoop from Dynamo Moscow with Kokorin and former Chelsea wing-back Yuri Zhirkov inking long-term deals with the club.
Zenit are thought to have paid a fee of around £18m to complete the double signing.
Kokorin has earned over 35 caps with his national side.
