Arsenal have reportedly reached an agreement in principle on personal terms with RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, according to multiple sources. The 22‑year‑old Slovenian forward has accepted the terms offered by the Gunners, with the final remaining step being a transfer agreement between the clubs .
Negotiations are said to be focused on a fee in the region of €80–100 million (£68–85 million), aligning with Leipzig’s expectations. Arsenal have assured Leipzig that any offer will meet the club’s valuation .
Sesko has been on Arsenal’s radar for over two years, emerging as a primary target after pursuit of Viktor Gyökeres stalled due to Sporting Lisbon’s valuation . The Gunners have shifted their focus, recognizing Sesko’s potential to provide a dynamic attacking edge following a season in which Arsenal's firepower was highlighted as an area for improvement .
If completed, the deal will mark a significant investment in the squad’s future. With personal terms reportedly settled, Arsenal now await Leipzig’s confirmation before proceeding to finalize the transfer.
