Brazil international striker Hulk has admitted that he knows there are a number of clubs interested in snapping him up from Zenit St. Petersburg.

Hulk has been linked with leaving the Russian Premier League side, despite having only joined last summer, transferring from FC Porto for around €40m.



The 26-year-old had been expected to join Chelsea in 2012, who have been tipped to rekindle their interest this year, but ended up in Russia, much to the surprise of many suitors.

The door could be open for the striker to make another switch this summer – however he is clear that he will only leave Zenit to join one of Europe’s biggest clubs, narrowing his options.

"I know that many clubs are interested in me", Hulk admitted to Globoesporte.

"But if I leave Zenit, I will only join one of the first rank of clubs", he added.

Hulk admitted as recently as June that he could not say there had not been interest in his services from Chelsea, while big spending French side Monaco have also been linked with raiding Zenit for the powerful striker.
