Arsenal will reportedly discover this week if they’ve beaten Chelsea to a rumoured transfer target leading up to Euro 2024.

Europe’s biggest international tournament returns this Friday with Germany kicking off the competition against Scotland, where Arsenal will have a number of players taking part in this summer’s event.

Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice are expected to be key players for England whilst the likes of William Saliba, Jorginho and Kai Havertz will also be aiming for international glory with their respective nations.

And Arsenal could soon find out if they’ll have another player representing the red and white at Euro 2024.

Benjamin Sesko to decide on club future this week amid Arsenal interest

According to GiveMeSport, Benjamin Sesko is to resolve his future in the coming days before the start of the Euros, with Arsenal and Chelsea in the conversation to sign the Slovenia international.

With a release clause worth £55m, Sesko has been strongly linked with a move to Mikel Arteta’s side in recent weeks, though interest from Chelsea could now be a problem given their financial muscle in the market.

Lauded as ‘special’ by RB Leipzig technical director Christopher Vivell, Sesko ticks a lot of boxes that could make the 21-year-old striker an ideal candidate to lead the line for Arsenal next season.

And with the attacker and his team keen to get his future resolved before the start of the Euros, it could only be a matter of time before Sesko’s next move is made public, with Arsenal watching on with bated breath.

Sesko would be wise to choose Arsenal over Chelsea this summer

Sesko’s future decision is just on the horizon, with many Arsenal fans hopeful that the Bundesliga striker opts for a move to north London rather than a switch to Stamford Bridge and to Chelsea.

And for many neutrals on the matter, the general opinion is that Sesko would be wise to choose Arsenal over the Blues this summer, given the clear direction the Gunners are heading in under Arteta.

Indeed, Arsenal’s need for a striker will allow Sesko to grow into the role and to develop into the striker the Gunners need going forward, with the youngster potentially a superstar in the making if he makes the right decision.
