West Ham have already seen a £57m bid rejected while the likes of Chelsea and Al-Nassr have also been heavily linked. It seems Arsenal may have stolen a march on their rivals, though, with Fabrizio Romano claiming they have already made contact over a potential move.

Chelsea are in talks to sign RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko, who is Arsenal's primary transfer target for 2025.

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.

Mikel Arteta has made it clear he wants to bring in some new faces before the transfer deadline on February 3, with RB Leipzig star Sesko reportedly their top target. But cheaper moves for strikers such as Evan Ferguson or Matheus Cunha cannot be ruled out.
