Ahead of the January transfer window, Arsenal are now often being linked with a striker, with several of Europe’s best being discussed.

Although Gabriel Jesus has been blighted by injury, Eddie Nketiah has simply failed to show the consistency needed.

And judging by reports, a top striker to compete with Jesus could be the next thing on Mikel Arteta’s agenda.

That being said, a lesser-mentioned name is now being discussed among the decision-makers at Arsenal.

According to , Arsenal are now considering a move for RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko.

And although the 20-year-old only arrived in Germany in the summer, he is already attracting attention for his next move.

Moreover, Sesko hasn’t even established himself as a firm member of the first XI at Leipzig just yet, either.

The striker is often starting games from the bench, making to Arsenal in January look peculiar.

However, the raw attributes that Sesko possesses are incredibly exciting, and are already ones that some of Europe’s top clubs would like to harness.

Benjamin Sesko is the latest striker to be linked with a January move to Arsenal

One of Sesko’s most desirable characteristics for clubs in pursuit is his size.

At 6ft 4inches, Sesko is to Erling Haaland, a player who he says he has watched a lot over the years.

And the Slovenian does claim to have learned a ton from studying the Manchester City striker.

If Arsenal do sign Sesko they wouldn’t be getting the finished product, rather a player who is showing a ton of untapped potential.

And given Gabriel Jesus is still the main man at the club, and deservedly so, the two could dovetail well.

It’s an interesting time as an Arsenal fan, the club now have an extremely promising foundation to build upon.

And if Arsenal don’t sign a striker in January, then it seems as if they’ll have something special lined up next summer.
