Chelsea playmaker John Obi Mikel has hinted that he could abandon Stamford Bridge for Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala.
Anzhi, who are believed to be in negotiations with Blackburn Rovers defender Christopher Samba, have reportedly revealed their interest in Mikel.
"It is true that Anzhi officials contacted me and made a move to have me, but I have not given them my word yet," Mikel told MTNFootball.
"I am still a Chelsea player, changing clubs is not a decision to rush into, I love Chelsea and I am taking my time.
"I want to play always and that has not been happening for a while now but I hope after my recent injury problem, I will get regular football action."
The 24-year-old Nigerian has slipped down the ranks at Chelsea after six years at the club.
