We report a detection of a possible new transient source IGR J17391-3021 with the IBIS/ISGRI detector onboard the INTEGRAL observatory. The source position is RA = 17h39.1m, Dec = -30o21.5' (equinox 2000, uncertainty 3'). It is close to the position of the known transient source XTE J1739-302 (angular distance is ~5.5') and taking into account that uncertainty of the position of XTE J1739-302 is 4.8' (Smith et al. 1998) we cannot exclude that INTEGRAL detected an outburst from XTE J1739-302.
