Arsenal Submit £59m Bid for Striker as Transfer Gains Momentum

Arsenal have taken a significant step in the race to sign RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško, reportedly submitting a £59 million bid for the highly sought-after forward.

With competition from several top clubs, the Gunners appear to be leading the chase for his signature.

Despite a strong Premier League campaign, Arsenal are on course to finish as runners-up for the third consecutive season.

Liverpool currently hold a commanding 12-point lead at the top, and Mikel Arteta’s side would need an extraordinary turn of events to reclaim the title race.

For several transfer windows, fans, pundits, and former players have urged Arsenal to sign a prolific striker—one capable of making the difference in crucial matches against top-tier opponents.

While Arsenal have not struggled to score goals, securing a reliable centre-forward remains a priority to push for their first league title since 2003.

Several high-profile strikers, including Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak and Napoli’s Victor Osimhen, have been linked with the Gunners. However, Arsenal now seem to have made Šeško their primary target ahead of the summer window.

According to German outlet Bild, Šeško prefers a move to the Premier League despite interest from other European clubs. If a deal materializes, the young Slovenian forward could add a new dimension to Arsenal’s attack, providing the cutting edge needed to challenge for silverware.
