CSKA Moscow striker Fedor Chalov: Why Crystal Palace move fell through

CSKA Moscow striker Fedor Chalov has opened the door to a move to England this summer.

Chalov is being linked with Chelsea and Crystal Palace this week.

“It is clear that there is a dream to play in Europe," said Chalov in an interview with Nobel Arustamyan's Youtube channel. "And for this I must have a European agent. If I move to another country, it will be difficult for some time. And maybe I might need some help. Including in the domestic planning.

"After the disruption of the transfer to Crystal Palace, I spoke with the leadership of CSKA. We talked with (CSKA president) Eugene Lennorovich Giner. He expressed his position, and I respect it.

"At that time, CSKA needed me, and so to find a replacement quickly was difficult."
