Published: February 08, 2016

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that Russian Premier League side CSKA Moscow remain in talks with Guangzhou R&F over the signing of the young striker Aaron Samuel.

The Nigeria international put the cart before the horse when he announced via Instagram on Sunday that he is set for a new challenge with the Muscovites, though Guangzhou R&F have not reached an agreement with the interested club.

Having said that, CSKA Moscow are hoping to sign Aaron Samuel on loan before February 26- the date the Russian window will slam shut- and will have the option to acquire him on a permanent basis come July 2016.

The capital outfit have been chasing the 21-year-old for more than a year but failed in their attempts to land him in the previous two transfer windows.

Samuel has contractual obligations with Guangzhou R&F until the end of next season.
