Niko Kranjcar is reportedly open to a move to Russia or Ukraine.
The 27-year-old has been linked with a switch to Dynamo Kiev and admitted the financial lure of playing in Eastern Europe could be appealing.
Kranjcar, who made just 12 Premier League appearances this season, told Croatian website Index: “In Russia and Ukraine playing football you can earn huge money. Whether we admit it or not, money is important. Football in the east has progressed. The teams are always high up in the Champions League or are in the Europa League final. It’s not like it was ten years ago.”
