Eto'o to become world's top earning player with ?350K per week Anzhi deal

London, Aug.23 (ANI): Samuel Eto'o will become the world's top-earning footballer when he completes a staggering move from Inter Milan to the Russian Premier League side Anzhi Makhachkala.

Cameroonian Eto'o is set to pocket an astonishing 18-millon-pounds-per-year in wages, amounting to roughly 350,000-pounds each week, reports the Daily Mail.

"The signing of the deal will likely take place on Monday or Tuesday at the latest, as long as Samuel successfully completes his medical," Claudio Vigorelli said.

Reports in Russia claim that Anzhi owner Suleiman Kerimov, who is not only a billionaire, but also a Russian senator, is also targeting Barcelona's Brazil defender Dani Alves in a possible 35million pound move.

Anzhi have become major players since Kerimov, who has poured money into the club, bought them. (ANI)
