Andrei Arshavin: Bayern out, Real in

To recap from yesterday’s post:

“My dream is Barca, but to say that isn’t new. The whole world knows that I have dreamed forever about going to Barca.” - Andrei Arshavin, July 18, 2008.

“The stable situation in the club and the influence of Arsene Wenger to Arsenal to English football is huge. I think this is an advantage.” - Arshavin’s agent Dennis Lachter, July 14, 2008.

“I am very optimistic about this deal. The next few days will see if he can confirm this move to Spurs. Andrei likes the way Juande Ramos is going to play at Tottenham and this is the main point of our decision.” - Arshavin’s agent, Dennis Lachter, July 31, 2008.

“I don’t want to play for Zenit any more. Playing for Bayern is a dream.” - Andrei Arshavin, November 19, 2008.
