Nadir Belhadj injury scuppers move from Portsmouth to CSKA Moscow
Portsmouth's hopes of cashing in on Nadir Belhadj have been dealt a double blow.[LNB] CSKA Moscow are interested in the £4.5million-rated Algeria left-back, but a thigh injury will keep him out beyond the April 8 transfer deadline in Russia. [LNB]Belhadj is also far from thrilled by the prospect of playing in Moscow and admits that staying in England or moving to Spain would be more attractive. [LNB] On his way: Belhadj (left) is heading out of Portsmouth[LNB]'If it wasn't for the injury I would have left already,' said the 27-year-old. 'Right now I prefer to stay here and rehabilitate before the World Cup. [LNB]'My agent is in charge of this. I'd like to play in Spain or England, but I don't want to talk too much about this.' [LNB]Italian side Roma, cash-strapped themselves, have also expressed in an interest in the player, who has previously stated it would be a dream to go to Barcelona. [LNB]Meanwhile, he has played down fears that the adductor injury he sustained in training last week will rule him out of representing Algeria in South Africa this summer. [LNB]'It turns out that I have a slight injury in my ligament,' he said. 'Right now I'm rehabilitating and according to the medical staff I'll be ready in three to four weeks. [LNB]'An injury is the worst enemy of any professional footballer, especially when it's sustained on the eve of the World Cup. [LNB]'All players have that fear of missing the World Cup due to an injury. Nevertheless, I'll be recovered in a few weeks and ready to take part in it.'
