Arsenal will move for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko and Real Sociedad defensive midfielder Martín Zubimendi in the summer, while the long-term future of Chelsea's Christopher Nkunku is still up in the air.

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.

Arteta is believed to be actively pursuing the idea of bringing in a No.9 or attacking wide player for the Gunners but is working with limited options in the winter transfer window. However, Arsenal still hold an interest in RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko who they were heavily linked to in the summer.

Benjamin Sesko has emerged as a top target for Arsenal, with Gunners' chiefs having sanctioned a big-money move for the RB Leipzig star in this month's transfer window

Arsenal appear to have received a clear response on the future of Benjamin Sesko amid the latest links with a transfer for the striker. The forward has been on the radar for the Gunners for some time, with the north London outfit failing to land him over the past summer transfer window.

Fabrizio Romano has discussed Arsenal’s transfer plans as the January transfer window comes to a close. Mikel Arteta’s side were expected to be active in this window, but that has not been the case, and they now look set to continue the season without bringing in an attacking reinforcement.
