Belarusian forward in England for talks
Sky Sports News understands Blackpool are in talks with Zenit St Petersburg striker Sergei Kornilenko.
Ian Holloway has been working hard on transfer deadline day to bolster his ranks, with Andy Reid already snapped up from Sunderland.
It is expected that Rangers striker Craig Beattie will follow him through the doors, as the Seasiders look to add extra experience to their ranks.
Both of those recruits will also bring a considerable attacking threat, but Holloway is not prepared to stop there.
He is also closing on Kornilenko, who is a Belarus international currently plying his trade in Russia.
The 27-year-old is on the books of Zenit, but has also turned out for Dinamo Minsk, Dynamo Kiev and Rubin Kazan.
It is understood that Kornilenko is in England for talks regarding a move to Bloomfield Road, with a medical and personal terms hoping to be pushed through before the window slams shut at 11pm.
