Arsenal reject Sesko's demands

Arsenal have not been able to welcome any new players in the summer transfer window of 2025, and their search for a new striker is facing difficulties.

Arsenal do not want to spend too much money on Sesko.

According to sources from Bild , Arsenal's recruitment process for Benjamin Sesko has stalled due to the player's salary demands. Arsenal are willing to spend 70 million pounds to get the signature of the 22-year-old striker who is shining at RB Leipzig.

However, the problem lies in the salary demands of Sesko and his agent, which are said to be far beyond what Arsenal are willing to pay. The Slovenian striker is currently earning £120,000 a week at RB Leipzig, and he wants to double or even triple his salary if he moves to Arsenal.

This financial demand from the player caused a deadlock in negotiations, forcing Arsenal to consider alternative options. The Gunners' board believed that because Sesko's transfer fee was up to 70 million pounds, they could not afford to pay the player's high wages.

Therefore, Arsenal could turn to Gyokeres, a striker from Sporting CP. This striker is valued at around 50-60 million pounds, lower than Sesko. The Swedish striker is very excited about the prospect of moving to the Premier League, and has shown goodwill in negotiating wages with the "Gunners".
