Uzbekistan international Odil Ahmedov claims he is attracting interest from Arsenal.

Ahmedov, 23, is currently on loan at Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala from Pakhtakor Tashkent in his homeland, but he has been linked with a move to England.

The midfielder has now claimed Arsenal have sent scouts to every game he has played in and says he would relish a move to Emirates Stadium.

"It is true that Arsenal are interested in me. Now I am watched by the English team's scouts. They are watching me in every game," Ahmedov told RIA Novosti.

"If I move to Arsenal, it will be a success not only for me, but for the whole Uzbek football."
