Arsenal: Football circles are paying close attention to young star Benjamin Sesko as the summer transfer window draws near. This season has been an incredible rollercoaster for him at RB Leipzig, with early setbacks interspersed with a stunning comeback. The 20-year-old Slovenian has had success and frustration on the field since joining RB Leipzig from Red Bull Salzburg last summer for €24 million.
Though he had trouble at first getting into the starting lineup, Sesko persisted and eventually became an important member of RB Leipzig. Even having a sluggish start, he finished the 2023–24 season well, proving his mettle with 18 goals and two assists in 42 games played in different competitions.
Arsenal, Chelsea And Tottenham Are Fighting For This World Class Striker
Not surprisingly, Premier League behemoths Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur have shown interest in his outstanding efforts. Particularly Arsenal is searching for a striker after Gabriel Jesus’s disappointing year and Eddie Nketiah’s unclear future. Sesko has promise as a player to improve their offensive line-up.
Chelsea is looking to solve their striker problem as well, having not had a reliable frontman in previous years. Sesko meets the Blues’ need for a prolific goal scorer after Tammy Abraham left the team. Conversely, Tottenham Hotspur is still looking for a striker to spearhead its front line after failing to find a straight successor for Harry Kane in the previous summer. Sesko appeals to the North London team because of his potential and skill set.
Even with fierce rivalry for his signing, RB Leipzig is likely to charge a premium for Sesko’s services. With teams fighting for the chance to sign the youthful talent, the next transfer window looks to be interesting. It remains to be known where Sesko will play next season, but one thing is for sure: his football future is bright.

Chelsea is getting ready to wave goodbye to four important players this summer. As Football Insider reports, the choice is the result of an urgent necessity to stabilise their finances. Regarding possible exits from Stamford Bridge, the club has shortlisted Conor Gallagher, Ian Maatsen, Trevoh Chalobah, and Armando Broja.
It is intended that severing ties with these players would result in large income. This action not only helps to avoid any financial problems but also opens the door for large expenditures during the next transfer window. Disparities in management vision and ownership goals ended Mauricio Pochettino’s time at Chelsea. It was started to bring the team back to success.
With Pochettino gone, Chelsea is likely to sell Gallagher and Chalobah, who were seen as important assets by the Argentines. The club is willing to move Gallagher even though he has made significant contributions this season should a strong offer come up. Even if Chalobah is dealing with ailments, he may find a new beginning somewhere else and perhaps relaunch his career.
These local players might be leaving as a calculated move to guarantee adherence to Premier League financial rules. Being academy grads makes them assets that immediately increase the club’s profit margins.
