Arsenal is about to sign RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesco this summer.
According to a report from the Sun, Arsenal is willing to pay £70 million to sign the 22-year-old, but was unable to agree to personal terms with the player.
Arsenal was frustrated
The report claims Arsenal is unhappy with wage demands.
It will be interesting to see if Arsenal has decided to move on from players in the coming weeks. They are also monitoring sports CP striker Viktor Gyoker. You need to move quickly to sign a quality striker. They looked mediocre on offense last season, and quality strikers were able to make a big difference for them.
Mikel Arteta wants to sign Slovenian International, but he needs to reduce wage demands to pass the move. The 22-year-old will need to decide whether he wants to quickly join Arsenal.
Benjamin Sesco will become an asset
He’s definitely a quality player, and he scored 21 goals last season. Benjamin Sesco has the physicality and technical attributes that will do well in British football, and if he joins the club he will become an important player for Arsenal. He will be a long-term asset for them. There is no doubt that he can justify his future £70 million investment.
Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp recently praised Sesko (H/T Metro).
The gunner certainly wants players to reduce wage demands and continue trading. The opportunity to move to a Premier League club is also extremely exciting for players. It is a big step in his career and he can test himself at a high level. British regular football could accelerate his development.
