Arsenal's new No.9?! Benjamin Sesko wants Gunners move despite rival interest from Manchester United and Chelsea as RB Leipzig seek £45m deal

<p>Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have all been credited with an interest in the Slovenian striker ahead of the summer transfer window, but <a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/benjamin-sesko-arsenal-transfer-news-32926182" target="_blank"><em>The Mirror</em></a><em> </em>reports that the Gunners would be his first choice if a move were to materialise in the coming months.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Leipzig are prepared to sell Sesko, who turns 21 this week, should they receive an enticing enough offer. While his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/benjamin-sesko-release-clause-set-man-utd-arsenal-have-until-june-trigger-cut-price-transfer/bltb147c5215e26ead5" target="_blank">release clause is reportedly set at around €65 million (£55m/$70m)</a>, though it has been suggested the German side would accept around £45m ($57m).</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Sesko only joined Leipzig from Red Bull Salzburg last summer after just two years with the Austrian side. He scored 14 times in 31 Bundesliga matches as well as two in eight Champions League appearances. The forward impressed in more than just his goal tally, though, as he put in a stellar display as his team came close to causing an upset against Real Madrid in European competition this term.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The 28-time Slovenia international is contracted to Leipzig until 2028 but could be on the move if Arsenal opt to act on their interest. He may boost his hopes of making a summer move if he impresses at Euro 2024, where his country will take on England, Denmark and Serbia.</p>
