After excitement was built up on Tuesday, various sources, including the player's agent, have rubbished talk of Benjamin Sesko joining Arsenal.

Arsenal have ‘no chance’ of signing Benjamin Sesko this month, according to David Ornstein, with the RB Leipzig striker’s release clause not active during the January transfer window.

Indeed, according to David Ornstein, speaking on The Athletic FC Podcast, Sesko is a long-term Arsenal target, but a deal this month would be difficult to do, so a summer switch may be more likely. Ornstein shared what he knows about Sesko and Arsenal’s interest in the player.
