Seaman calls on Arsenal to sign Sesko

Arsenal legend David Seaman has called on Arsenal to sign Benjamin Sesko.

The Slovenian recently appeared to snub a move away from RB Leipzig this summer after signing a new deal at the club.

But Seaman believes Arsenal should pull out all the stops to the land the striker regardless of his new deal.

Speaking to Betway, Seaman said: “Benjamin Sesko looks the perfect type of striker that Arsenal need. He was impressive for Slovenia against Denmark.

“I’ve talked about how they need a physically dominant No. 9 who can hold the ball up, and Sesko has that Haaland-type frame.

“He might be staying at RB Leipzig for now, but you never know what might happen in the future. Adding a few notes usually changes things!

“When it comes to transfers, it will be quiet for most clubs until Euro 2024 is over. You don’t know what sort of injuries players might pick up, so you have to wait and see a little bit.

“I still feel Arsenal need to prioritise a striker, and any midfield signings would depend on if Thomas Partey stays or goes. If he stays, then I don’t think midfield is a priority.

“I’d also possibly look for a back-up for Saka and more depth at centre-half. None of it is urgent, though. Arsenal don’t need a lot of new signings, just one or two in key positions.”
