Arsenal have reportedly entered concrete negotiations with RB Leipzig over the signing of Slovenian striker Benjamin Sesko, according to Sky Sports Germany. The Gunners, who are looking to bolster their attacking options ahead of the new season, have identified Sesko as a key target.
Sesko, 21, has been in impressive form for Leipzig, scoring 21 goals in 45 appearances across all competitions this season. His combination of pace, technical ability, and physical presence makes him an attractive prospect for Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, who is keen to add more firepower to his squad.
Reports suggest that Arsenal’s sporting director Andrea Berta and RB Leipzig’s Marcel Schäfer are actively engaged in discussions regarding the transfer. While Arsenal have also been monitoring other strikers, including Viktor Gyökeres, their pursuit of Sesko appears to be serious. The Slovenian forward has a release clause of €80 million, which could be a decisive factor in negotiations.
While no official agreement has been reached yet, Arsenal fans will be eagerly awaiting further developments as the club looks to finalize a move for one of Europe’s most promising young strikers.
