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

Benjamin Sesko has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal but the RB Leipzig star's agent has poured water on any rumours of a January loan switch to the Gunners

Arsenal could accelerate their plans to sign a top striker, with RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko under consideration by manager Mikel Arteta.

Arsenal now appear open to signing a new striker during January's transfer window after the season-ending injury suffered by Gabriel Jesus and amid Bukayo Saka's continued absence.

Arsenal are still actively scouring the striker market for a January opportunity, but a move for top target Benjamin Sesko won't materialise until the summer, according to a report. The Gunners failed to reinforce their centre-forward department last summer after Sesko snubbed them in favour of extending his RB Leipzig contract.
