Benjamin Sesko looks likely to miss out on a transfer to Arsenal with the Gunners set to complete the signing of Viktor Gyokeres. The Slovenia international came close to joining Arsenal 12 months ago prior to Euro 2024, but opted to remain with the Bundesliga club and signed a new contract.

Arsenal will sign a new number nine this summer after years of hunting for a centre-forward, and one of their key targets is Benjamin Sesko. Sesko has been strongly linked to Arsenal, and while a deal isn’t done yet, the RB Leipzig star may now be even more excited to sign for the Gunners as an exciting new rumour has emerged.

It has placed great importance on the recruitment of a striker, and it has been a task sporting director Andrea Berta has been working towards with the utmost care, all so that Arsenal are successful in the end. The two names of most prominent interest have been Benjamin Sesko of RB Leipzig and Viktor Gyokeres of Sporting CP.
