Arsenal speeds up to close a blockbuster signing: 80 million

Arsenal has initiated concrete steps to incorporate Benjamin Sesko, one of the most promising names in European football and the chosen one by Mikel Arteta to lead their attack. The London club is actively working to finalize an agreement with RB Leipzig, convinced that the young striker is the missing piece to complete a formidable offensive trident alongside Bukayo Saka and a top-tier left winger, such as Nico Williams.

At just 21 years old, Sesko has made a significant impact in the Bundesliga, showcasing a goal-scoring ability that has not gone unnoticed. His 21 goals and 6 assists in 45 matches with Leipzig make him a strong bet for an Arsenal looking to make a definitive leap in Europe and compete confidently in all competitions.

Arsenal Working to Sign Sesko

The Gunners have closely monitored other forwards in this market, but the interest in Sesko has gained momentum in recent weeks. Discussions between the parties are progressing, with Marcel Schäfer and Andrea Berta playing key roles in the negotiations. The transfer fee, estimated to be around 80 million euros, doesn't seem to be an insurmountable obstacle for the Londoners, who are willing to invest heavily in a forward with both present and future potential.

Mikel Arteta has emphasized the need to reinforce the forefront with a young yet proven profile, and Sesko fits perfectly into that mold. The operation, although complex, is taking shape, and Arsenal hopes to finalize it before other European giants join the bidding. All signs point to the Slovenian possibly becoming the next major signing to land at the Emirates Stadium.
