With Yury Zhirkov already gone, CSKA Moscow are preparing to bid farewell to yet another star player. German side Stuttgart have targeted striker Vagner Love and are reported to be in talks with CSKA.
The 25-year-old, who has 20 caps for the Brazilian main squad, has long been a Stuttgart target, and now their sporting director and manager have arrived in Moscow to negotiate a deal.
According to reports in the German media, Stuttgart are prepared to fork out up to €20 million for the star striker.
Love was the Premier League’s top-scorer last season, netting a total of 20 goals in 26 games.

Its a shame... Generally speaking, I think too many players are leaving the league... As for Love, CSKA are by far a better Club than Stuttgart, with all due respect of course. He can achieve more if he sticks with CSKA than if he moves to Stuttgart. In any case, thank you Love for all the wonderful and unforgettable memories. You will defenitely be missed there... Wish you the best of luck wherever you go!
