Arsenal on the verge of signing Alexander Kokorin from Dynamo Moscow?

Arsenal are reportedly on the brink of signing Dynamo Moscow striker Alexander Kokorin.

Gunners manager Arsene Wenger is close to convincing the Russian international to shun interest from elsewhere and move to North London, reports the Daily Star.

Kokorin, who is considered one of the top strikers in Russia, is said to be on the radars of Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and Zenit St Petersburg.

The player's agent was recently quoted as saying that he is working on a deal to bring his client to the Premier League, but a specific destination club was not mentioned.
