Rangers skipper Barry Ferguson has revealed he turned down the chance to sign for Zenit St Petersburg in January.
The Russian outfit made an approach for the player back in the January transfer window but Ferguson says he did not fancy the switch and did not even speak to them.
"There was interest from Zenit, but I didn't even need to speak to them about it. I just knew moving to Russia wasn't for me," Ferguson told a national newspaper.

Tottenham have missed out on a top seeding for Tuesday's Uefa Cup group stage draw in Switzerland.
Spurs were rated ninth in Uefa's seedings and join Bolton in pool two, while Everton are in the third tier with Aberdeen in the bottom eight.
This means they could face a top seed such as Villarreal or Bayern Munich.
The 40 clubs will be drawn into eight groups of five, with each playing two home and away matches. Clubs from the same country cannot be paired together.
The top three in each of the groups will join the teams finishing third in the Champions League groups for the knockout rounds, which start with 32 sides.
