Real Madrid coach Bernd Schuster isn't interested in signing Zenit St Petersburg star Andrei Arshavin. Zenit have put their Russia international up for sale and he is high on the shopping list of Real sports chief Pedja Mijatovic.

However, Sport says Schuster has made it clear Arshavin doesn't fit the type of attacking player he needs for the second-half of this season.

The German wants cover for crocked centre-forward Ruud van Nistelrooy and is demanding a striker signing of similar characteristics.
