Arsenal have switch their attention to Porto's Yacine Brahimi after they failed in their attempts to sign fellow Algerian Riyad Mahrez from Leicester City.
The Gunners had made multiple bids for Mahrez this month before he committed his future to the Premier League champions on a fresh four-year contract.
The People says the North London outfit will consider a move for Brahimi, who has previously caught the radar of Liverpool. Brahimi currently has a £45m release clause in his contract, but the Gunners will look to negotiate a £30m sum for his services in the transfer window.
Since joining from Granada in 2014, the 26-year-old has been in good form for the Dragons, and this has attracted interest from a whole host of European clubs.
He was part of the Algerian side that reached the last 16 of the World Cup finals in Brazil two years ago. He was recently the subject of an approach from Liverpool, but the lack of European football nullified the agreement.
