Anzhi takes all

Russia is a big country famous for vodka, KGB and other things. But now, they are coming strong from behind in the football domain trough a team that started to buy all the stars from the top teams in Europe.

For the moment, Anzhi’s next target is Dani Alves, the Brazilian defender from Barcelona, for who is willing to pay between 35 and 40 million euros. Russians try to attract Guardiola’s player with a salary of 15 million per year, 5 less than actually they are giving Eto’o.

Suleiman Kerimov, the sponsor of Anzhi, ranks in the top 118 richest people in the world. At Anzhi also plays Roberto Carlos, Yuriy Zhirkov and they recently signed with Inter’s striker, Samuel Eto’o which is the the highest paid player in the world with a salary of 20 million euros per year!

The only inconvenient in Dani Alves case is that he has a contract with Barca until 2015 and has a termination clause of 150 million euros, which decreases with 25 million euros from season to season.

If they will pay so Alves could play for them, they could be an important opponent for a lot of teams. Though, Barcelona is an important team and Alves is a key player in their game so a move it’s almost impossible.

The signing depends on both sides. If they’ll want, I will stay. Otherwise, life will continue. I won’t pull my hair if they think I don’t deserve to stay. “Alves said.

The problem is solved with help from a company in South America, which gave the amount of money in exchange of Barcelona’s image for promoting some product
