Mikel Arteta‘s side should have an advantage over the likes of Chelsea and Man United too. Sesko has made it clear to his representatives that the Emirates Stadium is his preferred destination.Photo by Alexander Hassenstein/Getty ImagesArsenal is Benjamin Sesko’s preferred destinationDespite scoring the second-most goals in the Premier League last season with 91 – Arteta’s teams tending to share the goalscoring burden around – the London giants are still in the market for a classic centre-forward capable of turning their team from nearly-men into Champions.There was an interest in Newcastle United hitman Alexander Isak but that no longer appears possible. Arsenal also like Dusan Vlahovic of Juventus, Marcos Leanardo of Benfica and Sporting Lisbon’s former Swansea, Brighton and Coventry City powerhouse Viktor Gyokeres.Gyokeres scored a stunning 43 goals during an outstanding debut season at Sporting Lisbon in 2023/24.The Swede has an £86 million release clause in his contract, however, putting him a little on the expensive side. Sesko’s own release clause, HITC understands, is much lower at £55 million. MORE ARSENAL STORIES Still only 20, Sesko has amble room to improve too. Comparisons have often been drawn with Erling Haaland, another who came through the Red Bull ranks, but agent Elvis Basonovic is keen to point out that Sesko is his own man looking to make a name for himself in his own right.RB Leipzig ace likened to Erling Haaland “I think he is one of the best talents in the world at his age,” Basanovic said before his client left Austria for Germany in 2023. “I don’t like when people compare Sesko to Erling Haaland. Each player is different and unique. He has his own way of playing, his own career goals, and he’s sure to have a different career too.“I think he is a very complete striker who can score with his head, with his right foot, with his left foot, from inside the area, from distance, after dribbling or completing a team move.“He is very fast, in some games he reaches a speed of over 36km/h (22.3 mp/h) which makes him one of the fastest forwards in the world.”HITC have been told that Arsenal are open to moving on Gabriel Jesus this summer. The former Manchester City forward scored only four goals in 27 Premier League games, although injuries did restrict his contribution to another title charge.The £40 million-rated Eddie Nketiah can also leave after another year stuck on the bench. HITC understands that Crystal Palace, West Ham, Fulham and Bournemouth are all interested.READ: 50 MOST LIKELY PREMIER LEAGUE, EFL AND EUROPEAN SUMMER 2024 FOOTBALL TRANSFERSRelated Topics alexander isakArsenalbenjamin seskoChelseaExclusivegabriel jesusManchester UnitedNewcastle UnitedPremier League Related Posts More in Arsenal More in Arsenal
