It seems sad that such a player with so much promise had to leave England in such a low key. Arsenal fans might be happy about his leave but i believe that the right reason should be him gaining confidence and improving. If he decides to stay there permanently, i advise Wenger to get another playmaker as soon as possible because players like Arshavin ar hard to come by in terms of technical prowess...
Andrey Arshavin has rejoined Zenit St Petersburg on transfer deadline day in Russia.
Arsenal agreed to loan the 30-year-old to his former club until July, despite Gunners boss Arsene Wenger claiming earlier on Friday that he did not expect a deal to be done.
Arshavin was an instant success following his £15m arrival from Zenit three years ago but has made just eight Premier League starts this season and seen his stock with the club's supporters plummet in recent months.
Zenit had until 9pm (GMT) to agree personal terms with the forward and finalise the necessary paperwork but Arshavin took to Twitter just after 8pm to confirm: "It's done".
He later told his website: "I have transferred to Zenit. On loan. The details tomorrow when you wake up."
Arshavin's last game in England was on Tuesday when he played for Arsenal's reserve team, scoring twice in a 5-0 win over Norwich City.
