Man United, Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea on alert as Krasic eyes deal
CSKA Moscow's Milos Krasic is set for a January move to the Barclays Premier League. The £9million-rated Serbia playmaker caught the eye of Sir Alex Ferguson in two impressive Champions League performances against Manchester United. But Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea also sent scouts to watch him during CSKA's 3-3 draw at Old Trafford last month. Familiar face: Krasic (left) could be on the same side as United's Nemanja VidicCSKA president Yevgeny Giner says he will not stand in the way of Krasic moving on to bigger and better things. And the 25-year-old's agent says England is the most likely destination for a player who has also attracted interest from Real Madrid and AC Milan. 'I think that if Krasic leaves CSKA in January, he is 90 per cent likely to go to England,' said agent Dejan Joksimovic. 'Manchester United? There are three or four big English clubs, with important financial resources, interested in him.' Inter Milan are the most recent team linked to him, but neither Milan club would be able to play him this season without offloading another non-EU player. 'I don't know anything about Inter while I heard something about AC Milan a month ago through my partner, but nothing concrete,' said Joksimovic. 'In January it is much more probable the English track will be followed, also because there aren't problems about extra EU players. 'If Krasic won't leave in January, in the summer Italy could return as a possibility. And if Milan were to come forward, it would be an excellent solution for Milos, no doubt about it.' CSKA are preparing for a winter of transition after finishing fifth in the Russian league and failing to qualify for next season's Champions League. Giner says he will listen to acceptable offers for Krasic and goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev, who has also been linked to United. 'Nobody at CSKA is happy with our position in the league,' said Giner. 'We set ourselves only one task: to be champions. 'As for the rumours about our leading players, such as Akinfeev or Krasic - if we receive an offer from a top club we will discuss it. But from an average club, it will not be considered.'
