Arsenal & Man Utd transfer snub! Benjamin Sesko opts against Premier League move but new RB Leipzig contract includes ‘gentleman’s agreement’ for future switch

The 21-year-old <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/euro-2024-power-rankings/blt747bf1ccd8153598" target="_blank">Slovenia international striker</a> has become one of the most sought-after talents in European football. He plundered 18 goals for Red Bull Salzburg in the 2022-23 season, before matching that output during <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/benjamin-sesko-happy-with-decision-to-snub-man-utd-for-rb-leipzig/bltf49d0f02c195229f" target="_blank">his debut campaign in Germany</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Interest has built steadily in the towering frontman, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arsenal-new-no-9-benjamin-sesko-transfer-manchester-united-chelsea-rb-leipzig-gbp45m/blte9b5f3b3774f8783" target="_blank">Premier League giants said to be leading the chase for his signature</a>. Arsenal were reportedly <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/arsenal-want-benjamin-sesko-transfer-euro-2024-man-utd-chelsea/blt05ad1f27e023f28e" target="_blank">confident at one stage of putting a deal in place ahead of Euro 2024</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<a href="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1800443297443570011?t=mGxtgqkgnP0GuHQSh8JV5A&amp;s=19 " target="_blank">Fabrizio Romano</a> reports that the Gunners, along with fellow suitors United, have seen their efforts come to nothing. Sesko has agreed fresh terms in Leipzig and will not be going anywhere this summer. His new contract does, however, include a release option for upcoming windows.

DID YOU KNOW?

That means Sesko may come back onto recruitment radars at Emirates Stadium and Old Trafford in the future, with his profile and price tag expected to remain on the rise. For now, much like Erling Haaland did during his days at Borussia Dortmund, the youngster has decided that continuity and stability are the way forward.
