Arsenal are not giving up on signing Benjamin Sesko. Arteta likes the Slovenian and the Gunners would like to pay a fortune for his signing<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona<\/strong> are starting to think about the future ‘post Robert Lewandowski<\/strong>‘. The Polish striker is having a spectacular start to the season<\/a>, but his age (36 years old) and his contractual situation (his contract expires in 2026) force the Catalan club to look for possible replacements for the striker in the centre of the forward line.<\/p>

In the offices of the Spotify Camp Nou<\/strong> they have several candidates on their list of possible candidates, with Erling Haaland and Viktor Gy\u00f6keres<\/strong> as two of the big favourites. However, the high figures that would be handled in their operations make their signings too difficult, so the Catalans would also have Benjamin Sesko<\/strong>, a young ‘crack’ of RB Leipzig<\/strong>, on their radar.<\/p>

The 21-year-old Slovenian is ‘coming out’ under Marco Rose, forming a highly dangerous trident in the company of Xavi Simons and Lo\u00efc Openda<\/strong>, and is very popular at Can Bar\u00e7a, where they value his profile as a pure number nine and goal scorer.<\/p>

Arsenal, the great threat for Sesko’s signing<\/h2>

However, his great form has also caught the attention of several of the continent’s big clubs, with Arsenal <\/strong>‘pressing’ to get his services. The ‘gunners’ have been following him for some time and in recent weeks have intensified their interest in the player, as reported by ‘CaughtOffside’.<\/p>

Although, today, everything points to Sesko <\/strong>being willing to renew his contract with the German squad, the pressure from the Londoners could change his mind. The Emirates Stadium<\/strong> would offer a figure close to 75 million euros<\/strong>, a very high and attractive amount that could leave Bar\u00e7a <\/strong>without options in the ‘race’.<\/p> ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
