Dynamo Moscow striker Yaroslav Gladyshev admits teammates have enjoyed teasing Arsen Zakharyan about the interest of Chelsea.
The young winger was giving an interview after their clash with Ural this week and Fedor Smolov passed by chanting 'Chelsea, Chelsea'.
Gladyshev laughed: "We're like this for any situation! (Thomas) Tuchel was sacked, Parshivlyuk immediately began: 'Arsen, where are you going with him now?'
"About Zagreb, he was told that Chelsea lost only because they did not sign him. There was even a semi-analysis that instead of (Hakim) Ziyech, he would have looked better.
"Every day we tease Zakharyan with this Chelsea story.
"He laughs along with us.
"Any player would be shocked when they're called by an English club that won the Champions League a year ago. It was not visible from the outside. I think Zakharyan was worried inside. But the team did not notice."
