Dynamo Moscow striker Aleksandr Kokorin emerges as Arsenal January target

Dynamo Moscow striker Aleksandr Kokorin is a January target for Arsenal.

The Daily Mail says Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has his eye on a new forward when the transfer market re-opens in January.

Kokorin is an option for Wenger; the Gunners tried to sign the Russia international on transfer deadline day.

Wenger is open to strengthening his squad at the turn of the year; particularly if his side look to have a realistic chance of mounting a serious title challenge.

Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud are Wenger's two striking options as it stands; though the injured Danny Welbeck can also occupy the lone centre-forward role.
