CSKA Moscow midfielder Aleksandr Golovin has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Chelsea.
Golovin has previously been linked with a transfer to Arsenal but with Arsene Wenger having left the Emirates Stadium, it appears that new boss Unai Emery is targeting other areas of the pitch.
According to the London Evening Standard, Chelsea appear to be most likely Premier League side to launch an approach for the Russia international during the summer window.
A report has claimed that the Blues are close to announcing Maurizio Sarri as the replacement for Antonio Conte in the Stamford Bridge dugout, and it is being suggested that the former Napoli boss is an admirer of Golovin.
The 22-year-old has established himself as one of Russian football's star men, scoring 13 goals in 113 appearances with CSKA.
Juventus are also said to hold an interest in Golovin.
