Arsenal have entered advanced talks with RB Leipzig over the potential signing of striker Benjamin Šeško, according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano.
Romano shared the update on Friday via his official X account, stating that negotiations are moving forward, but a deal is unlikely to be completed this weekend.
He posted: “Understand Arsenal are now advancing in negotiations for Benjamin Sesko after initial concrete talks reported last week. Discussions are underway and proceeding well between all parties involved, players & clubs. No agreement yet now or expected this weekend; but advancing.”
Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is keen to strengthen his attacking lineup ahead of next season after yet another second-place finish in the Premier League.
However, landing the 21-year-old Slovenian striker won’t come cheap—RB Leipzig are reportedly holding out for a hefty £92.5 million fee.
