Fernando Torres rejects Anzhi Makhachkala?

Fernando Torres has reportedly rejected the chance to join Anzhi Makhachkala.

The Chelsea striker has struggled since his move to the club for a Premier League record £50m in 2011, and the Russian side were willing to offer the forward an exit from Stamford Bridge, according to the Daily Mail.

However, the former Liverpool man has decided to turn down the chance to join the wealthy Anzhi.

Torres has failed to find the net this year, with his last goal coming in the 8-0 win over Aston Villa in December.
