Arsenal has entered the race to sign German Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko during the upcoming summer transfer window, having sent scouts to watch him in his team's match against Bayern Munich last Saturday.

Sesko, who is 21 years old, is having a remarkable season with Leipzig, having scored 21 goals and provided 6 assists in all competitions, making him a target for major European clubs.

Arsenal is facing a decline in their attacking duo Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz, and hopes to sign Sesko to strengthen their front line alongside Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli. The club believes that Sesko could be the right solution to clinch important matches and increase their scoring effectiveness.

According to reports, scouts from Liverpool and Chelsea attended the same match to monitor the player, as each is looking to bolster their squad with a striker capable of making a difference.

Liverpool is considering signing a more effective replacement for Darwin Nunez, while Chelsea sees Sesko as a potential way to lighten the scoring burden on Cole Palmer.
