Catch the latest Arsenal transfer news and rumours, with updates on Benjamin Sesko, Igor Jesus and Elye Wahi.
The January transfer window is closing in on the final couple of weeks, with Arsenal still looking to close a few deals before the end.
A forward is on the cards for the Gunners, with hopes that a signing or two could breathe life into the rest of the season.
There could be a few exits coming as well, with a few options rumoured with making a transfer away from the club.
So with that said, here’s a look at the latest Arsenal transfer news and rumours.
Benjamin Sesko to Arsenal transfer latest
Arsenal have been rumoured with interest in RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, following links with a switch in the previous summer transfer window.
The forward ended up signing a new deal with the Bundesliga club, but reports have stated that there is a “gentleman’s agreement” over a switch in the months ahead.
With that interest clear, Sky Sports reports that Chelsea have joined Arsenal in the race to sign Sesko in the transfer window.
A deal seems unlikely in January, but it’s stated that a deal in the region of £67million would be enough to seal a move.
It remains unclear as to whether Arsenal or their rivals will look to pursue that before the end of the window.
Arsenal join the race for Igor Jesus
Another striker seemingly on the radar for Arsenal is Brazilian forward Igor Jesus of Botafogo, who has impressed in the Serie A.
The 23-year-old has been rumoured with a switch to the Premier League, with the Gunners among those eyeing a deal.
With that said, journalist Eduardo Burgos claims that Arsenal have held “informal chats” over a potential move with the forward.
Jesus is viewed as a potential option if the Gunners cannot land their first-choice striker options.
Fabrizio Romano reveals striker transfer update
One of the many strikers on the shortlist at Arsenal, Elye Wahi, has been linked with a potential move this January.
However, it appears as though it won’t be the Gunners he is lining up with by the end of the month as another club look to seal a deal.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Wahi is closing in on a deal to join Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt in the coming week.
The final details are claimed to be closed to complete, with the deal set to end any remaining interest from Arsenal.
