The saga surrounding Andrei Arshavin's potential move to one of Europe's major leagues has taken another twist after the Russia star claimed it would be "a dream" to join Bayern Munich.

The 27-year-old midfielder has already seen moves to England and Spain fall through after his current club, Zenit St Petersburg, refused to budge on their £25million asking price following his starring role in Euro 2008.

Arshavin has publicly criticised the Russian club for their unrealistic valuation, but has welcomed reports that Bayern might be interested in signing him when the transfer window reopens in January.

"I don't want to play for Zenit any more," he told German media. "Playing for Bayern is a dream."
