Arsenal is reportedly nearing the acquisition of their £60 million primary target, following the receipt of a favourable indication. Manager Mikel Arteta is making a significant effort to secure this signing at the present time.

 

 

 

Arsenal is reportedly nearing an agreement for their primary target, Benjamin Sesko, as they are prepared to make a substantial financial investment in a striker at this time, following a significant effort by Mikel Arteta. During the summer transfer window, the Gunners identified Sesko as their primary target in their pursuit of acquiring a new striker.

 

 

 

Nevertheless, this agreement did not materialise, as the 21-year-old opted to extend his commitment to the Bundesliga club RB Leipzig for an additional year.It was initially anticipated that the North London club would postpone the acquisition of a new striker until the summer transfer window.

 

 

 

However, the injury sustained by Gabriel Jesus may necessitate a reconsideration of this strategy, as this recent setback leaves head coach Mikel Arteta with Kai Havertz as his sole option at centre-forward.

 

 

 

Arsenal is associated with various alternatives; however, Sesko continues to be their primary target. He has recorded 14 goals and provided three assists in his 26 appearances for RB Leipzig during the current season.

 

 

 

On Wednesday evening, a report indicated that Arsenal has made a new inquiry to RB Leipzig regarding Sesko. A recent report by John Cross of The Mirror indicates that Arteta is actively pursuing a significant effort to acquire Sesko and is reportedly making substantial progress in securing the striker.

 

 

 

The Slovenian international has established himself as one of the premier youth forwards in Europe, prompting Arsenal to forgo the acquisition of an alternative during the summer transfer window.

 

 

This could be considered a misjudgment. Arsenal has encountered difficulties in converting scoring opportunities this season, exhibiting an excessive dependence on Bukayo Saka and set-piece situations.
