Arsenal are accelerating their efforts to sign Benjamin Sesko, the highly-rated RB Leipzig striker, in what could be one of the most crucial transfer deals of the summer window.

According to a report by GOAL, the Gunners are growing increasingly confident in their pursuit of the £60 million-rated Slovenian forward, who has become a top priority for Mikel Arteta’s attacking setup.
Sesko, 21, has emerged as one of Europe’s most promising young strikers, having scored 14 goals in the Bundesliga and showcasing elite finishing, movement, and physicality. His profile fits perfectly with Arsenal’s vision of building a youthful but experienced team for title contention next season.

RB Leipzig are reportedly willing to sell—but only if certain financial terms are met quickly. The German club is understood to have made a “telling request” to Arsenal, signaling that the player’s release clause must be triggered outright or a structured deal must be completed early in the window to facilitate planning for a replacement.
The North London club faces stiff competition from Chelsea and Manchester United, both of whom are monitoring Sesko’s situation. However, Arsenal's long-term project, Champions League status, and stable sporting structure give them a potential edge.

Should Arsenal seal the deal, it would further affirm their transfer strategy of blending young talent with elite-level potential—similar to the acquisitions of Gabriel Jesus, Martin Ødegaard, and Declan Rice.
Fans await updates eagerly, with the club aiming to finalize Sesko’s signing before pre-season begins.
