Arsenal & Man Utd on alert as Benjamin Sesko's 'gentleman's agreement' in lieu of RB Leipzig release clause revealed

<p>Sesko was on the radar of several high-profile teams in the summer before he decided to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arsenal-man-utd-transfer-snub-benjamin-sesko-premier-league-move-rb-leipzig-contract-gentlemans-agreement/bltc17c166590aedcf7" target="_blank">extend his contract with RB Leipzig</a> until 2029. However, the move merely delays Sesko's inevitable exit and he'll be among the transfer rumours again at the end of the season.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arsenal-want-benjamin-sesko-transfer-euro-2024-man-utd-chelsea/blt05ad1f27e023f28e" target="_blank">Arsenal were heavily linked with the 21-year-old</a> but Mikel Arteta decided to persist with his current options in attack, a move that could backfire with the Gunners looking up in the Premier League standings. Manchester United are also said to be interested in Sesko, with Rasmus Hojlund <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/rasmus-hojlund-bad-joshua-zirkzee-worse-ruben-amorim-top-task-man-utd-goal-crisis/blt7104e4ac972a6b47" target="_blank">not yet doing enough</a> to prove that he can be their striker of the future.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Both clubs will likely be in the mix to sign Sesko again next summer and they have just found out how much the Slovenia international is likely to cost. According to journalist <a href="https://x.com/Plettigoal/status/1855597040979288077" target="_blank">Florian Plettenberg</a>, Sesko has a "gentleman's agreement" in his RB Leipzig deal, in lieu of a release clause, that means they will open negotiations with any interested clubs should they receive an offer of between €70-75 million (£58m-62m). </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>The striker has scored seven goals in all competitions this season, although he's on a run of one goal in his past seven matches. International duty now awaits, with Slovenia taking on Norway and Austria in the Nations League next week.</p>
