Dzagoev not thinking about move to top club, yet

Russia forward Alan Dzagoev is not thinking about a big-money move to a major European club.

Not yet, anyway.

The 21-year-old CSKA Moscow forward has scored three goals at the European Championship, even with Germany striker Mario Gomez and Croatia forward Mario Mandzukic. That goal-scoring touch has fueled transfer speculation that already was swirling around the talented youngster before the tournament.

Dzagoev says he wants to test himself at other European clubs but would only think about it after Euro 2012.

He says ''now I'm doing my job here.''

Dzagoev has the chance to extend his scoring streak Saturday against Greece. A draw is enough to extend Russia's stay at the tournament until the quarterfinals.
