PanARMENIAN.Net - The Football Association of England is not blocking the possible transfer of Dynamo midfielder Arsen Zakharyan to Chelsea, Sport Express reports.

Negotiations are ongoing, and the decisive round will take place on September 1, the parties will discuss options for making the transition. Chelsea have not lost interest in the Russian player of Armenian origin.

Reports claimed earlier that Zakharyan's move to Chelsea was unlikely. Zakharyan has just a £12.6m release clause. However, the deal will not go ahead because of sanctions on the Russian economy due to the war in Ukraine.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
