Chelsea midfielder Yuri Zhirkov is a target for Dynamo Kiev.
The Daily Mail says the Ukrainian League leaders can still do business as their championship does not resume until the end of the month.
Kiev's Russian boss Valery Gazzaev nurtured Zhirkov at CSKA and would be keen to sign him for the rest of the season.
The 26-year-old warned before making the switch that he would not be happy to be a bit-part player for the Blues, though he has been patient and positive while battling unexplained swelling in both his knees since moving to England.
