Benjamin Sesko's agent finally reveals truth behind Arsenal transfer rumours

Benjamin Sesko's agent admits there is no truth in the Slovenian heading to Arsenal - and laughed off suggestions of a loan move. The RB Leipzig hitman has a host of Europe's top clubs tracking his situation after a rapid rise. Sesko is currently plying his trade in Germany but is among several strikers to be linked with Arsenal, who themselves are in need of a goalscorer.
Mikel Arteta has opted against investing in a prolific frontman with Kai Havertz often leading their attacking line. However injuries to Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus has furthered their need to add new faces and Sesko, alongside the likes of Alexander Isak, are being linked.
There were reports of Arsenal bringing in Sesko on loan, which would raise a lot of eyebrows. The player's agent, Elvis Basanovic, was at a loss to explain where that came from with no dialogue taking place with the north London outfit. He told GiveMeSport: “I don’t know from where does this story comes. I never talked with Arsenal about loan of Sesko. Sesko is not a player for loans, never a topic for Arsenal or any other club”.
When asked if the Leipzig striker has the quality to play for Arsenal he told Slovenian TV channel Arena Sport: "I think you should ask Mr. Arteta about that. But I think Sesko could suit many clubs because he has different football skills. He can play alone in attack, with two strikers, a little further back, he has height, speed, technical speed.".
