Eintracht Frankfurt's Carlos Zambrano will join Rubin Kazan

A Peruvian centre-back is heading to Kazan Arena.

Eintracht Frankfurt announced on Sunday that Carlos Zambrano will join Rubin Kazan in a transfer that all parties involved believe will be finalised next week.

Zambrano, 26, joined Eintracht from FC St. Pauli in 2012 and boasts 117 appearances for the Eagles. He was omitted from Peru's squad for the Copa America Centenario as Ricardo Gareca, Los Incas' manager, selected a new generation of players after the team's poor start to 2018 World Cup qualifying.
