Andrey Arshavin is set to sign for Macedonian side Vardar Skopje, according to Ekipa.
Arshavin was released from his contract by Kuban Krasnodar last month and the 34-year-old admitted he was at such a low ebb that he was even considering retirement.
“If I get one, I will study the offer, otherwise I might quit football,” he told Sport Mediaset.
But the former Arsenal forward is set to be offered a lifeline by Vadar Skopje and their Russian owner Sergei Samosenko.
