Manchester United and Tottenham are among clubs alerted to Milos Krasic's declaration this week that he's ready to leave CSKA Moscow.
The exciting Serbia international winger has been watched by both Premiership clubs, along with AC Milan and Real Madrid, since the closure of the summer market.
And last night, Krasic, an international teammate of United defender Nemanja Vidic, admitted: "I've been in Russia for five years and now I want to try something new, it's time to take a step forward in my career.
"If should arrive in January an offer from a great team, CSKA Moscow will let me leave."
