Yury Zhirkov admits he is open to leaving Chelsea this summer.
The 27-year-old Russia international, signed in July 2009 for £15million, has just year left on his contract and is being tracked by Dynamo Moscow.
Asked if he wants a return to home homeland, he said: "It's hard to tell. On the one hand, I am a player of Chelsea, a club with rich traditions, and I will make everything possible to establish myself there.
"On the other hand, during my two years in London I could not boast regular performances - if there were good offers from Russia, why not consider them?
"However, it would be a difficult choice to make.
"Now, there is nothing concrete and there's, actually, nothing to talk about.
"My situation is not so severe.
"I won't lie - Chelsea is the primary option for me, while Russia is the secondary one."
