Dynamo Kiev striker Aleksandr Kokorin has emerged as a transfer target for Arsenal, according to reports.
The 24-year-old Russian international has scored five goals in 11 appearances for club and country this season.
Arsene Wenger, who was rumoured to be pursuing the player last summer, is ready to launch a £7m bid for the striker in January, reports The Sun on Sunday.
Kokorin, who was part of the Russian squad at Euro 2012 and at the World Cup last year, is a product of Dynamo's youth academy.
He made his senior debut for the side as a 17-year-old in 2008, and has made 170 league appearances for the club, as well as winning 36 caps for his country.
