Arsenal are set to prioritize a move for Benjamin Sesko in the summer transfer window, according to reports from CaughtOffside

The Gunners have been linked to several attackers, and after failing to secure a forward signing in the winter, they are now shifting their full focus to the upcoming summer window.

The 21-year-old Slovenian attacker has been linked with a move away from Germany, with several top clubs across Europe vying for his signature. Arsenal now view Sesko as their priority attacking target for next season, overtaking big names like Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyökeres on their shortlist.

Arsenal’s Interest in Benjamin Sesko

Reports suggest the Gunners have elevated the RB Leipzig star’s name to the top of their transfer list and are determined to bring him to the Emirates Stadium this summer.

The CaughtOffside report adds that Sesko has attracted interest from the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United, with both clubs making inquiries about his availability. However, the young Slovenian forward is said to be particularly intrigued by Arsenal’s project.

Valued at £42 million (transfermarkt), Sesko’s representatives have reportedly encouraged Arsenal to make a formal bid for the player this summer. While Arsenal have shown strong intent, doubts remain over whether Sesko will opt to stay at RB Leipzig or make the switch to the Premier League.

The 21-year-old has built an impressive reputation in the Bundesliga, scoring 94 goals and providing 24 assists in 209 appearances. His track record makes him an exciting prospect for Arsenal as they aim to strengthen their attack for next season.

As the summer window approaches, Arsenal fans will hope their club can outmaneuver their competitors and secure the services of one of Europe’s most promising young attackers.

In other , Arsenal have been dealt an injury scare as Kai Havertz reportedly picked up a muscular issue during training in Dubai. The German international’s condition raises concerns for a side already short on attacking options.

The Gunners will be hoping to have Havertz fully fit soon as they continue their push to challenge Liverpool for the league title.

Arsenal are set to face Leicester City next at the King Power Stadium on February 15.
