Arsenal are one step closer to landing their main striker target.
After months of scouting, talks, and competition from rivals, the club has finally received a positive signal from their main target.
The player has reportedly given his approval to join the Gunners, according to Sport Bild.
The striker has had a breakout year. His performances with a European giant have made him one of the most talked-about forwards in Europe.
He scored 21 goals last season and became known for more than just finishing.
His movement, link-up play, and understanding of space have caught the eye of several top clubs.
Arsenal were not alone in their interest. Chelsea, Manchester United, and Tottenham had all shown strong intent.
But while they hesitated over the high price tag, Arsenal stayed firm.
They made the striker their top priority.
Mikel Arteta sees him as the perfect fit for his style of play.
The club now faces one more hurdle. They must reach an agreement with RB Leipzig.
The player’s current club are clear on their demands: €80 million or no deal.
Arsenal are working behind the scenes to try and finalise terms as quickly as possible.
With 16 goals in 41 matches for Slovenia, Benjamin Sesko is already a key name for his country.
And now, everything is lining up for him to become the big addition to Arsenal’s frontline for the 2025/26 season.
But what finally gave the London club an edge over their rivals was not just money or tactics.
It was a personal green light from Benjamin Sesko himself, a decision that could change Arsenal’s attack for years to come.
