At last, it’s confirmed: A sensational £90M-rated striker, who was just a step away from joining Liverpool last week, has now officially signed a five-year contract with Arsenal. The deal was completed last night, and the club will announce it to the fans today in front of a packed Arsenal crowd!

At long last, Arsenal have secured the signature of a highly sought-after striker, valued at £90 million, who was reportedly on the brink of joining Liverpool just last week. The player has now officially committed his future to the North London club by signing a five-year deal, with the contract finalized late last night. Arsenal are set to formally unveil their new star signing to the fans later today.

In addition to this major capture, Arsenal are actively pursuing further reinforcements ahead of what promises to be a significant summer transfer window. Reports from Sky Germany confirm that the Gunners have entered serious discussions with RB Leipzig regarding the potential signing of striker Benjamin Sesko.

It appears that the negotiations for the Slovenian international are beginning to gain momentum, as both clubs engage in talks to explore the possibilities of a transfer.

The report suggests that Leipzig’s sporting director, Marcel Schäfer, is already in touch with Arsenal’s newly appointed sporting director, Andrea Berta.

Their conversations center around the terms and feasibility of bringing Sesko to the Premier League. Leipzig, having failed to qualify for the Champions League this season, are in need of financial inflow and have reportedly identified Sesko as one of the prime candidates for a summer sale.

Currently, the German club value Sesko at over €80 million, though his contract includes a flexible release clause that makes his departure increasingly likely in the coming months. Leipzig are also open to alternative payment structures, allowing room for negotiation. This flexibility could potentially work in Arsenal’s favor, though it also gives Leipzig the opportunity to drive up the asking price.

Arsenal’s interest in Sesko is not new, as the club had been monitoring him closely during the previous summer window. Sky Germany claims that Sesko is now firmly at the top of Mikel Arteta’s wish list, preferred even over other rumored targets like Viktor Gyökeres. According to their sources, Arteta sees Sesko as the ideal candidate to lead Arsenal’s attack in the coming seasons.

While the negotiations are still ongoing, there’s growing confidence from the German side that an agreement between both clubs can eventually be reached.

Arsenal seem determined to strengthen their squad ahead of next season and are hopeful that Sesko could be their marquee signing to bolster their attacking options.
