Draw attention to man in a city in Arizona (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flagstaff

'a city in arizona' is the definition.
(Arizonan city)

'draw attention to man' is the wordplay.
'draw attention to' becomes 'flag' (as in to flag or mark something).
'man' becomes 'staff' (both can mean to work at a particular post).
'flag'+'staff'='FLAGSTAFF'

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for flagstaff that I've seen before include "Flying Pole" , "supporter of raised standards" , "Jack may be seen here" , "Standard-bearer" , "Arizona community" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
