Arsenal remains interested in Benjamin Sesko despite missing out on signing him during the summer transfer window, according to journalist Sten Hornig. The Gunners had shown strong interest in the Slovenian striker and even made an offer to RB Leipzig. However, Sesko chose to extend his contract with the German club until 2029.
Arsenal’s recent successes, including a 2-0 Champions League win over Paris Saint-Germain, with goals from Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka, and a crucial 4-2 Premier League victory against Leicester City, have kept their momentum going as they prepare to face Southampton next. With a busy schedule, the club is still monitoring potential transfers, particularly Sesko, as they consider future moves.
Sesko’s impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, with Manchester City and Manchester United also tracking his progress. Hornig, speaking to *TuttoJuve*, remarked on Sesko’s potential, estimating his market value at over €75 million, a sum that could be challenging for clubs outside the Premier League. Hornig expressed doubt about Sesko moving to Italy next summer but confirmed that top English clubs, including Arsenal, remain interested.
As the January transfer window nears, Arsenal will continue to watch Sesko’s development and may look to make another attempt to sign him next summer, aware of the stiff competition from their Premier League rivals.
