Arsenal may seek to acquire a striker in the summer, and Benjamin Sesko of RB Leipzig is among those rumored to be interested in joining Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners have reached the Champions League quarterfinals and challenged Manchester City and Liverpool for the Premier League championship during their sensational 2023–24 campaign. However, in order to maintain their progress, the north Londoners might require to be proactive during the summer transfer window.

The position that has generated the most discussion is the striker position, with Arteta himself acknowledging that his team lacks a productive No. 9 after Wednesday’s loss to Bayern Munich. The Spaniard stated to CBS Sports, “We have been the team with the most goals scored in the Premier League.

“From all perspectives, the fact remаins that we do not possess a striker capable of accumulating 35 or 40 goals is concerning. Consequently, we must accept this; besides this, we possess numerous other qualities. “Today is a day to show our support for the players, as they have been instrumental in our success and have accompanied us on this journey.”

According to football.london, Edu Gaspar is interested in signing a striker this summer, and RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko is one of the players being considered. This season, the 20-year-old has contributed to two assists and thirteen goals in 37 appearances for the Bundesliga club.

Evening Standard reports that a €50 million (£42.7 million) release clause in Sesko’s contract is scheduled to take effect this summer. In comparison to Erling Haaland, a striker for Manchester City, that seems like an equitable valuation for a forward of Sesko’s caliber.

The Slovenian international performs primarily as a center forward but is also capable of playing in the peripheral positions; therefore, should he transfer to Emirates Stadium, Arteta will have more options.

Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Rice, Havertz, Odegaard; Martinelli, Sesko, Saka are all potential Arsenal XI members should Sesko sign.
