ARSENAL are interested in signing RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko – who snubbed Manchester United last summer.<\/p>\n
Erik ten Hag attempted to sign the Slovenian, 20, ahead of the 2022\/23 campaign.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But the forward ended up joining RB Leipzig, sealing the switch from RB Salzburg in 2022 before he spent one more season with the Austrian outfit.<\/p>\n
Now Man Utd look to be in desperate need of a striker as they have lost eight of their opening 15 games in all competitions.<\/p>\n
But according to The Mirror, Arsenal are the frontrunners to sign the \u00a340million man.<\/p>\n
Sesko has impressed already this season, scoring six goals in 13 games for Leipzig.<\/p>\n
And that has attracted interest from the likes of Chelsea, Tottenham and AC Milan.<\/p>\n But it is Mikel Arteta's men who are now leading the race to secure his services.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n And Arsenal have reportedly sent scouts to watch the attacker in action.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Sesko, who also has nine goals in 24 games for Slovenia, explained in September why he chose Leipzig over interest from other clubs such as Man Utd.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS<\/strong><\/p>\n He said: "The thing is, I wasn't really involved in these kinds of conversations. But I think it was better to come here.<\/p>\n "It was very important for me to go to a place that plays a similar style of football.<\/p>\n "I already knew what I had to do and didn't have to go through a whole learning process again."<\/p>\n ARSENAL TRANSFER NEWS LIVE: Stay up to date with all the latest transfer news and rumours from the Emirates<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/picture>DOWN TOWN <\/span><\/p>\n
