Arsenal are reportedly considered favourites to sign RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko at the end of the campaign.
The Gunners have had Sesko on their radar for the past year and they are expected to make a fresh approach this summer.
SportBild claim that Sesko has a gentleman’s agreement to leave for €70m, but Leipzig are hoping to secure at least €100m with a bidding war.
The Gunners are the ‘hottest candidate’ in the pursuit of the striker, but it is reported that Real Madrid and Chelsea are also in the race.
Sesko has had a good season with the Bundesliga outfit. He has accumulated 15 goals and four assists in all competitions.
His shot conversion rate of 26 percent is one of the best in the league. He would be an upgrade on Kai Havertz with his finishing skills.
Arsenal should be in pole position to land him. They have already been in constant contact with his representative as well as Leipzig.
