The latest Arsenal transfer news as Benjamin Sesko misses RB Leipzig clash days after fresh links with a January switch to the Premier League.

Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri understands that the German club would be tempted by bids of £67m for Sesko this month. Arsenal were keen on signing the Slovenian international for £55m (release clause) before he extended his deal with Leipzig last June. Will that reported £12m hike deter the north London club?

RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose has dismissed talk of Arsenal target Benjamin Sesko leaving the club in January. The Gunners were strongly linked with the striker in the summer and that interest remains, particularly with the Gunners short in attack after injuries to Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus.

Flamengo are believed to have held talks with Jorginho and his representatives. But according to Brazilian newspaper O Dia, the financial demands laid out by the Arsenal man are ' out of touch '. Flamengo have therefore rejected his contract terms and sent a counter-offer to see if they can land Jorginho without breaking the bank.

Arsenal could accelerate their plans to sign a top striker, with RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko under consideration by manager Mikel Arteta.

Benjamin Sesko 's agent has stoked reports of Arsenal interest in the striker during the January transfer window. Arsenal are on the hunt for a new striker following Gabriel Jesus 's ACL injury, which is set to sideline him into next season.

Arsenal are desperate to fix their striker problems and could make a move for Viktor Gyökeres or Benjamin Sesko before the window closes. Transfer Talk has the latest news, gossip and rumors.
