Arsenal are reportedly tracking CSKA Moscow midfielder Alan Dzagoev.
The 21-year-old, who is out of contract in December, has already struck three goals for Russia during their Euro 2012 campaign.
Dzagoev made his international debut against Germany at the age of 18 and has gone on to win 22 caps for his country.
According to the Daily Mail, the Gunners head a queue of clubs competing for his signature.
The young starlet hails from the town of Beslan, where a school was besieged by terrorists in 2004.
