Arsenal might look to secure a pre-agreement with RB Leipzig regarding a summer move for Benjamin Sesko, a target for Chelsea and Manchester United.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, Benjamin Sesko is the subject of interest from Arsenal. The RB Leipzig striker is also a target for Chelsea and Manchester United, with the Bundesliga giants demanding around £50 million to part ways with him in the 2025 summer transfer window. However, the Gunners could pursue a pre-agreement for the young striker in January.
The rapid rise of Benjamin Sesko
Benjamin Sesko has gradually established himself as one of the best strikers in the Bundesliga since joining RB Leipzig from sister club Red Bull Salzburg in July 2023. The youngster took some time to get going but has not looked back since becoming a regular for Die Roten Bullen.
The 21-year-old has been hot off the blocks in the 2024/25 season, amassing six goals and three assists in ten appearances across all competitions. Meanwhile, Sesko’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe, especially in the Premier League. Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United are among his prospective suitors.
A man in demand
Arsenal mulled over signing the Slovenian international in the summer transfer window. However, the move did not see the light of day, with Sesko signing a new contract with RB Leipzig with £91,000-a-week wages. The Gunners remain interested in the young striker, and they will seek a pre-agreement with RB Leipzig to beat the competition to his signature, with the Bundesliga giants demanding £50 million to part ways with him.
Meanwhile, Chelsea’s interest in Benjamin Sesko is understandable. The West London club failed to sign a striker in the summer transfer window, and they will return to the market for a centre-forward next year. The RB Leipzig attacker has thus emerged as a viable target for Chelsea.
As for Manchester United, it is unclear why the Red Devils are still keen on signing Sesko. The Red Devils have signed two strikers in the last two summer transfer windows. So, unless one of them leaves, pursuing another centre-forward will not be ideal for Manchester United.
Arsenal might anyway be the best-placed team to sign Sesko from RB Leipzig in the summer transfer window. However, it will be interesting to see if they can secure a pre-agreement with the Bundesliga club regarding the £50 million-rated attacker.
