Arsenal Engages Leipzig over Sesko amid Gyokeres, Rogers Transfer Interest

Arsenal have prioritized signing RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko this summer, opening talks despite Leipzig's high asking price reportedly over £90 million. The Gunners have also shown interest in Sporting Lisbon’s Viktor Gyokeres, though Manchester United is competing for the Swedish forward, who is open to joining United even without Champions League football. Alongside these primary targets, Arsenal are pursuing Aston Villa’s winger Morgan Rogers and Feyenoord’s Brazilian forward Igor Paixao, while also expressing interest in Real Madrid’s winger Rodrygo. Arsenal’s transfer activity reflects a clear focus on strengthening their attacking options, with ongoing plans for signings and potential exits in the squad. Meanwhile, Manchester United continues to chase Gyokeres and has had a bid rejected for Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo, illustrating a competitive transfer market among top English clubs. The Arsenal hierarchy is also reconsidering defender Jakub Kiwior’s future, with recent performances prompting them to retain him rather than sell this summer.
