Arsenal have identify their number one target for the summer transfer window.
The Gunners are expected to sign a striker in the summer and they have been linked with several big names in the game.
This season has shown that there is a need of new, prolific attacker at Arsenal, somebody who could take them one step further and bring them closer to the Premier League title.
Even though they have Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus at the club, both have failed to have the impact similar to Erling Haaland at Manchester City or Mohamed Salah at Liverpool.
According to Caught Offside sources, the Gunners hold genuine interest in signing RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko.
The Slovernian striker has become the favourite attacker of most Premier League clubs with interest high in his services.
Tottenham, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, Newcastle and Aston Villa are all keeping a close eye on the Bundesliga striker.
Sesko has a clause in his contract that allows him to be sold for at least €70 million and can go up to €80 million depending on his performances.
The Leipzig attacker has scored 17 goals this season and provided six assists in 36 appearances for the German club.
