Zenit St Petersburg forward Andrei Arshavin has all-but conceded he will not be joining Tottenham.
The talented schemer has been a long-term target for Spurs boss Juande Ramos but the North London club have failed to concur on a fee with their Russian counterparts.
Zenit have been steadfast in their £24million asking price; a figure which the Tottenham board have baulked at in turning their attention elsewhere.
Keegan tried to sign him before Euro 2008 but Mike Ashley dragged his feet.
Come on Ashley - put yer money where your mouth is!
