Zenit St Petersburg are moving for Real Madrid midfielder Guti.
Guti is preparing to leave Real this summer after being given the green light by new coach Jose Mourinho.
Blackburn Rovers boss Sam Allardyce has confirmed his interest, while AS says Zenit coach Luciano Spalletti has sought talks with the veteran about a move to Russia.
Guti, 34, has declared he intends to play on next season.
