Arsenal is currently negotiating a move to sign RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesco.
The 21-year-old is a standout for the German club, contributing 26 goals this season. He was able to prove that it was an exceptional acquisition of Arsenal if they could get the deal done.
Sesko is also linked to the transition to Tottenham. Meanwhile, Arsenal has linked multiple strikers in recent weeks, and it appears that the Slovenians are Mikel Arteta’s preferred target target to lead the offense next season. Apparently, Arsenal is trying to build a new offensive trident with the club, and they too want to sign Nico Williams.
Negotiations are underway
It remains to be seen whether Arsenal will be able to sign both players in the coming weeks. According to Fichajes, talks between Arsenal and RB Leipzig are progressing, with negotiations being held by Marcel Schafer and Andrea Berta among others.
The striker is likely to cost around 80 million euros, and Arsenal is willing to invest heavily in the attacking force.
Benjamin Sesco Wilde improves Arsenal
Sesko has all the tools to develop into a top-class Premier League attacker. He could be an ideal long-term investment for Arsenal. The 21-year-old has no doubt the physical and technical attributes to make it work in the Premier League. He could potentially become a key player for Arsenal in the coming season.
The Slovenians could prove to be a major upgrade to Gabriel Jesus, who has been so overwhelmed since joining Arsenal.
Meanwhile, Nico Williams will also be a great acquisition. He has proven himself for the club and country for the past 12 months, and has the ability to change Arsenal in offense. Gabriel Martinelli has been so overwhelming this season, and it’s no surprise that Arsenal is looking at a wide range of options.
