RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko has been linked with a move to Premier League side Arsenal.
according to give me sport so is the 21-year-old forward on the north London club’s radar after an impressive season last year. He scored 18 goals in all competitions during his debut campaign in Germany and Arsenal will be looking to seal the deal.

Ben Jacobs revealed a gms : “You still have Benjamin Sesko, who Arsenal feel when he finally decides to leave Leipzig, he has Arsenal in mind, and there were two parts last summer.
“One was, was Sesko going to renew? And he did. And two was, where was his preference if he didn’t renew? And Arsenal feel like they’re in front of Sesko’s tail in the player’s mind, if had chosen not to expand in Leipzig.
Sesko has the technical attributes to do well in the Premier League and could be a long-term investment for Arsenal. If the Gunners can sign him for a reasonable amount of money, the deal could look like a long-term masterstroke.
Players like Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz have not been able to score goals consistently and the Gunners need a prolific striker. The 21-year-old could solve his attacking problems.
Sesko would like Arsenal move
The chance to join Arsenal could also be quite tempting for the player. They have a proven track record of grooming young players and could help the 21-year-old fulfill his huge potential.
Arsenal’s attacking system could also be a good fit for the Slovenian international striker.
Mikel Arteta has done well to nurture talented young players at Arsenal since taking over as the club’s manager and could also play a key role in the development of the RB Leipzig star.
The German club will not want to lose the player easily and could demand a premium for his services. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal can negotiate a reasonable deal with them in January.
