"Zenith", it seems, cranked the most successful deal in its history, having sold the main star of the club. From sources close to the leadership team, we managed to learn, "Arsenal" has paid for itself Shavu record for money - 16, 5 million pounds. Of these, half a million - money of Arshavin, who owed him a bonus at the end of the past superuspeshnogo for the "Zenith" year.

Initially passed the information, that the amount of personal contract proposed by "Arsenal" Arshavin is 1, 8 million euros a year. But from St. Petersburg in the same amount did not agree. Agent football even commented on this occasion:

 - This is ridiculous money for such a player. He received twice as much in the "Zenith". We can not agree to such a proposal. Life in England is very expensive, and yet it remains to be transported here the entire family: his wife and young sons.

As the "KP", Andrew eventually knocked himself a salary of $ 3, 64 million "EUREKA" in a year.
