JUST IN: Atletico Madrid prepares a swap-deal plus add-ons for Benjamin Šeško who is also coveted by Arsenal, should in case they miss out on Man. City’s Julian Alvarez

Benjamin Sesko, a standout player for RB Leizpig, appears headed for a summer transfer to Atletico Madrid also coveted by Arsenal. Prior to the 2024–2025 season, the Gunners are looking for a new striker, and Sesko is expected to leave German Bundesliga team RB Leipzig.

Other forwards linked to a move to Emirates Stadium include Alexander Isak and Joshua Zirkzee,

but Sesko’s arrival is now beginning to seem the most plausible. Sesko’s future may depend on how Chelsea and Manchester United feel about the 21-year-old, but recent information indicates Arsenal

is the team that is most likely to sign him.

Although the Slovenian international has only played for Leipzig for one season, it is unlikely that he would return given the €65 million (£55 million) release clause in his current deal. Having said that, football.london has examined all of the recent developments pertaining to Sesko and his possible transfer to Arsenal.

Timeline explained

According to Fabrizio Romano, Sesko is taking his time making a choice about his future. It is said that the athlete is ‘taking some more days’ to consider his choices.

“RB Leipzig’s new contract proposal is still on the table,” he states. In the meantime, Šeško declined a €30 million net salary offer from Saudi. Since March/April, Man United, Arsenal, and Chelsea have all made approaches to šeško.”

“Now, Sesko has to decide whether he wants to stay at Leipizg and extend his contract or leave and probably go to the Premier League,” Romano said on his YouTube channel. Thus, this has to be the initial step. Which clubs then? I can assure you that no decisions have been made yet; they are all still

in the race.

“Sesko is still delaying his decision between Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United.” Sesko has not

yet accepted anything, but these three clubs are still in the running. Benjamin Sesko essentially needs

to choose what he wants to pursue because he has all the tasks in front of him.

Leipzig is anticipated to demand payment of the entire fee, but the Atleti may be able to avoid that and still prevail in the transfer war for his services.
