Russian Premier League sides CSKA and Dinamo Moscow are both reportedly interested in Liverpool striker Andrey Voronin.

According to The Telegraph newspaper, the clubs are ready to pay around £ 1.5 million for the Ukrainian international.

The 30-year-old lacks match practice with the Reds recently. He has played just eight matches in the current season, failing to score a single goal.

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is not making a secret of his plans to part with the striker during the winter transfer window. And while his teammates were playing with Wolverhampton on December 26, Voronin and his wife were on holiday in Miami.

Another contender for Voronin’s services is German side Hertha BSC, for which the he played last season, scoring 11 goals in 20 appearances.
