Arsenal and Manchester United are reportedly among the clubs showing the strongest interest in the transfer of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko.
According to Team Talk, the Gunners are reportedly thought to be the team favored to sign the Slovenian international.
His representatives are rumored to have recently visited both Old Trafford and the Emirates Stadium for talks.
Although Team Talk also named Bayern Munich as suitors, Sesko has excelled in the Bundesliga and will undoubtedly have a great career at one of Europe’s top teams at some point. Hopefully, we’ll get to see the 21-year-old in the Premier League.
Sesko appears to be the perfect striker to complete Arsenal’s current roster and provide Mikel Arteta with a well-rounded team that can contend for big awards.
Benjamin Sesko surely needs to choose Arsenal over Man United
Man United, by contrast, are still struggling badly and one has to wonder if Erik ten Hag will even last as manager for much longer.
The Dutch tactician has been given plenty of time to turn things around for the Red Devils, but it just hasn’t happened for him, despite also being gifted a number of expensive signings, including two top young forwards in the form of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee.
It might be that Sesko would be a smart signing to give United an upgrade on Hojlund and Zirkzee, but their presence in the squad might make the Leipzig man think twice about his playing opportunities there.
All in all, Arsenal would surely be the better move for Sesko, and Gunners supporters will be delighted to learn that their club seems to be in pole position for his signature.
This latest Sesko to Arsenal update is similar to what our columnist Charles Watts told us yesterday, as he provided his insight into the groundwork the north London giants had done on this deal
