RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko is also attracting interest from Arsenal and Chelsea. The 20-year-old has been compared to Haaland and has scored 13 goals in his debut season at Leipzig.
His representatives have been seen at both United and Chelsea matches, indicating strong competition for his signature. Leipzig is already seeking a replacement for Sesko as they expect his £42.7 million release clause to be activated this summer.
Several strikers, including Sesko, Ivan Toney, Viktor Gyokores, and Victor Osimhen, are linked with moves to United, Chelsea, and Arsenal as the market for strikers is expected to be busy in the upcoming transfer window. Arteta, the Arsenal boss, has expressed concern about the team’s lack of a prolific goal scorer and emphasized the need for support for the current players.
The inexperience of Rasmus Hojlund and Nicolas Jackson has led to prolonged goal-droughts at both United and Chelsea, and Sesko is seen as a potential solution to their scoring problems. With less than two months until the summer transfer window officially opens, the competition to secure Sesko’s services is well underway.
