Spartak Moscow have the luxury of choice with regards to Aiden McGeady's future as Everton, Fulham and Aston Villa square up for a winter-transfer battle.
According to Izvestia, Spartak are mulling over their options for January given that Ireland international McGeady is unlikely to pen a contract extension beyond the summer of 2014.
And adding fuel to that fire is McGeady's agent, who is open to considering serious offers from England, even amid a potential disparity in respective evaluations.
Agent Ian Draer told Izvestia: "While all of his thoughts are associated only with [Spartak], if Aiden gets a really serious offer from England, which suits the Russian club, we'll review it.

"To date, talk about anything specific is premature. My client has a contract with Spartak.
"As a true professional, he will see it out, and give his all in every match."
It is believed that former Celtic winger McGeady is being valued at around €7.5m, with offers of €4m deemed too low by his Russian employers.
Everton are not new to the McGeady race, having been linked with a move in the summer transfer window, though Zenit St Petersburg had ideas of their own.
Spartak's rivals had been considering giving McGeady the temptation of a €3.5m annual salary to keep him in Russia, but that has since faded from view.
