Andrei Arshavin will continue his career in the Azerbaijani club "Khazar-Lankaran". The contract with the club runs until the end of the season and provides for an extension for another year. Until the end of the season football retains the right to London "Arsenal" at the end of the season the player becomes a free agent. Thus, if the "Khazar" after the completion of the championship will decide to continue the cooperation with the former captain of the Russian national team, he will get the player for free.
In the two months remaining before the end of the championship, Arshavin will be the highest-paid player in the world. The services of one of the most popular players on the post-Soviet space will cost "Khazar" in 4,000,000 euros, which is the month he will get to 2 million euros. For comparison, the salary of Lionel Messi is slightly more than 1.6 million per month.
Apparently, it was the high salary is the argument on which Arshavin had no answer. For information about the current coach, "Khazar" John Toshack would like to see Arshavin in his team, appeared last week. But Arshavin, according to the British press, refused the offer of Azerbaijanis, as neither he nor his family did not want to move to Azerbaijan. However, the contract proposal was 4,000,000, of which it was impossible to refuse.
Information about the transition Arshavin already confirmed in the Azerbaijani club. "Andrei Arshavin really officially signed c our club. We are pleased that our player joins the ranks with such an impressive track record, is considered one of the most talented players in Europe. Arshavin transition from the" Arsenal "in the" Khazar-Lankaran "has become a landmark event not only for the club but for the whole of the Azerbaijani championship. hope that our cooperation will be fruitful. We are absolutely sure that Andrew has not yet said its last word in football, "- said a source in the press service of" Khazar ".
Arshavin also published on its official website the impressions of Baku: "We are with Julia arrived in Baku. Smooth speed route from the airport to the city center, where we waited for a cozy room at Park Hyatt. Along the way, I noticed that the city is actively being built. And notice We have met friends that the scale of construction and rushing up the skyscrapers are very similar to Dubai. Ambitious projects like Baku. This was immediately evident. But do not just love, but to be able to embody. were impressed with the complex Fleym Tower - three huge steel and glass skyscraper depicting three flames that adorn the arms of Baku. We wandered through the old narrow streets of Old Baku and gladly showed us the place where they filmed the iconic picture of the Gaidai "The Diamond Arm." I even went on the patio, which was the film smuggling pharmacy "Chikanuk" where the hero Nikulin in plaster hid treasures. struck me that this is essentially a monument of history and culture, and ordinary people are now living with their immediate problems and concerns. Surprisingly - to the left of the medieval Palace of checks, and the right - the usual modern house Bakuvian. And all of this organically intertwined and cute. <...> I am generally not a big fan of lamb, but I ate in Baku exclusively prepared by local chefs lamb chops. This is real yummy. Nowhere is this delicious dish is not cooked. professional footballers keep a diet in Azerbaijan extremely difficult. many temptations We never ate at the same place, time to appreciate the skill of the chefs not only Baku and other regions of the country. highest score they have earned. " At the same player, however, did not specify whether accompanied by his wife just for the procedure of signing the contract or she plans to move with his family to Azerbaijan.
Despite the fact that the rights to the player retains London "Arsenal", the return of Andrew in the camp, "Gunners" unlikely. Arsene Wenger does not see it in the main part of the club, and to replace Arshavin is extremely rare. And no matter how successful has played a Russian in "Khazar", its success is unlikely to produce a great impression on the coach, "Arsenal". However, Arshavin does not want to leave "Arsenal", as his suit and salary at the club, and the life in the capital city of England. Thus, a lot will depend on what kind of contract offer to Andrew at the end of the current agreement. With all the generosity of "Khazar" seems unlikely that he continued to pay Arshavin two million euros a month - this action is likely is single.
In this case, the motivation Arshavin may be financial - "Khazar" even in Azerbaijan is not considered grand, so great sporting achievements are unlikely.
Now, after 23 rounds of "Khazar" in the domestic league is the ninth place with 28 points. A total of 12 teams of the Championship.

It is ridiculous how much money there is in football now.
Re: Arshavin becomes Worlds most paid player

Why sign one player who is pretty average on such money? Why not attract 3-4 top class players for a fraction of that? No wonder Azeri football is in the wilderness.
