Benjamin Šeško Transfer from RB Leipzig to Chelsea

Chelsea have been in constant communication with Sesko's agent, especially after their failed bid for Victor Osimhen. Chelsea's interest in Sesko is part of their strategy to strengthen their squad, and they need to act quickly with the transfer window closing soon.

Chelsea are reportedly in discussions to acquire RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko as they seek to add a new forward to their squad before the closure of the January transfer window. According to TEAMtalk, Chelsea have initiated formal negotiations to sign the Slovenian international, with the intention of disrupting Arsenal's pursuit of the 21-year-old. It is reported that Chelsea are in ongoing communication with Sesko’s representatives and are contemplating a bid for the Leipzig forward before the January window concludes. Enzo Maresca’s team have reportedly stated that Sesko would instantly become a crucial player at Stamford Bridge, as the west London club aims to persuade him to choose Chelsea over Arsenal.

Team Talk provides an update on Chelsea's pursuit of a new striker, focusing on Benjamin Sesko. Chelsea are keen to bring in a new striker this month and are in talks over potential deals for Benjamin Sesko. Sources have confirmed that Chelsea have been in constant contact with the agents of RB Leipzig striker Sesko, who have been in attendance at Stamford Bridge recently. Chelsea are considering a bid for Sesko before the end of the January window.

Chelsea is one of the Premier League clubs interested in Benjamin Sesko. However, Sesko has picked Arsenal as his preferred destination. RB Leipzig has a firm stance against a January transfer, with no contact or discussions regarding Sesko. Sesko is focused on his development and does not want to rush a move.

RB Leipzig's coach Marco Rose mentioned in a press conference that Benjamin Sesko would not be leaving the German club during this transfer window. However, rumors in England persist about his potential move to the Premier League. Talk Sport reported that the Slovenian forward had chosen his destination, whether it be now or more likely next summer: Arsenal, which he preferred over Chelsea and Manchester United, other clubs interested in his profile. It appears unlikely that the Gunners will acquire the player in the remaining days of the transfer window, as an 'outrageous offer' would be required to purchase him in January, given Leipzig's firm stance. Consequently, the discussion is expected to be postponed until next summer.

According to Team Talk, Chelsea is reportedly considering a move to secure RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko before Arsenal can make their move. The club is contemplating advancing their striker acquisition plans to potentially outpace Arsenal in the pursuit of Sesko. Sesko is regarded as one of the top young forwards and is seen as a player who could immediately boost Enzo Maresca's attacking options. Last summer, Arsenal showed interest in signing Sesko, but he decided to sign a new contract with Leipzig, temporarily quelling the transfer rumors. It is suggested that a gentleman’s agreement with Leipzig allows Sesko to leave if an elite club presents an appropriate offer this year. The German club is reportedly seeking €80 million for their star player before considering a sale.

Chelsea are believed to be keeping watch of Benjamin Sesko. Sky Sport CH writes that the Blues recently initiated contact with RB Leipzig and the player's representatives, intending to complete a summer transfer rather than have Sesko move to London now.

Both Arsenal and Chelsea are thought to be on the lookout for an elite striker - and Sesko fits the bill. He is a physical presence, acting as a target man, but is also agile and carries a good amount of pace for his size. His eye for goal is second to none.

Chelsea have made a 'concrete' approach to recruit Benjamin Sesko, according to German media. Leipzig had to agree to a €50 million release clause in Sesko's contract just to be able to beat the competition to his signature last summer and this means that the 20-year-old is relatively affordable this year.
