It is widely reported that Arsenal is currently moving forward in consultations to sign Sport Lisbon and Swedish striker Victor Gyoker, so what happened to Benjamin Sesco?
Gunner was also really keen to sign RB Leipzig’s Sesko this summer, with new sports director Andrea Berta negotiating both deals at once.
But now, according to Athletics and others, Arsenal has decided to promote Gyoker as a priority.

Sources with a good understanding of the situation provide information Catch off side Leipzig’s demands were simply too high, and the club refused to retreat from the 900 million euro asking price, as originally reported by the hands of Arsenal below…
This is also linked to Catch off sideJohn Menzies recently reported with Butchi Lava, but was also told a few weeks ago that Arsenal was ready to leave the Sesco Talks.
Slovenia International has a big admirer at Arsenal, and it has long been reported that he was the club’s first choice, but other sources have been doing this, pointing to Berta’s clear desire to keep Gyoker’s story alive.
Benjamin Sesco may have other options
Sesko is expected to leave Leipzig this summer as she failed to qualify for the Champions League.

Meanwhile, Christian Faulk recently informed us that Sesco is interested in the Saudi Arabian professional league, but was advised by his national team manager to go there now.

United needed a new striker this summer, and Athletic also named Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins as someone on the radar, and the first story took place.
However, Sesko may make more sense as a long-term investment, even if Watkins has the advantage of being proven in the Premier League.
Catch off side Chelsea had previously expressed interest in Sesco, but this summer he signed both Liam Dellup and Joa Pedro as new strikers.
