RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko’s agent has sparked rumors about a potential move to Arsenal after being seen at the Emirates. Sesko is highly sought after and Arsenal may have an advantage in pursuing the £43 million-rated forward.
He has a reported £43 million release clause, making him a more affordable option compared to other targets like Ivan Toney, Victor Osimhen, and Viktor Gyokeres. Sesko’s agent, Elvis Basanovic, hinted at a potential move to Arsenal after being spotted at the Emirates for a recent match. Basanovic’s agency represents Sesko and his presence at the Emirates has fueled speculation about the striker’s future. While Kai Havertz has performed well as a striker for Arsenal, Sesko could provide additional depth to the squad as Arteta continues to make changes.
Standing at 6’4″, Sesko has drawn comparisons to Manchester City’s Erling Haaland due to his large frame and impressive goal-scoring record. After Arsenal’s Champions League exit, Arteta expressed the need for a prolific striker. He stated that the team currently lacks a player who can score 35 to 40 goals, hinting at a potential interest in signing a striker like Sesko.
