At the ballet: Capello watched Sleeping Beauty at the magnificent Bolshoi Theatre
Anzhi owner Kerimov is desperate to put an A-list manager in charge, with former Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink a target.
Oil tycoon Kerimov, who is worth an estimated £5billion, has transformed Anzhi since he bought them in January, bringing
Brazil World Cup winner Roberto Carlos and former Chelsea midfielder Yuri Zhirkov as well as Eto’o.
Despite that, the team look unlikely to even qualify for the Europa League, meaning Kerimov will continue to splash the cash.
Eto’o is earning £8.7m per season and a similar figure could tempt Capello, despite protestations that the England job will be his last.
