Latest Arsenal transfer news and gossip as RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko continue to be linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium

Flamengo are believed to have held talks with Jorginho and his representatives. But according to Brazilian newspaper O Dia, the financial demands laid out by the Arsenal man are ' out of touch '. Flamengo have therefore rejected his contract terms and sent a counter-offer to see if they can land Jorginho without breaking the bank.

Sesko appears to be one of the Gunners' top targets to help Mikel Arteta deal with an injury crisis. Gabriel Jesus is ruled out for the rest of the season after rupturing his ACL, while Bukayo Saka is sidelined with a hamstring injury. It's been a difficult period for the North Londoners, whose lack of firepower has been problematic.
