Benjamin Sesko has become a player to watch, catching the attention of top clubs like Arsenal and Newcastle. His recent performances for RB Leipzig have even earned high praise from Jurgen Klopp, who now serves as Red Bull GmbH’s head of global soccer.
RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko delivered another sensational performance against Werder Bremen, showcasing his ability with a stunning 25-yard strike. The goal marked his fifth in six games, underscoring the 21-year-old’s remarkable form.
Jurgen Klopp, now overseeing Red Bull’s soccer operations, witnessed Sesko’s brilliance firsthand and didn’t hold back his admiration. “That was a really good one,” Klopp said of Sesko’s goal. “I was pretty impressed. He’s a good player anyway, but that goal shows the level he can reach.”
Sesko’s rise has been nothing short of spectacular. With 30 goals in 66 games for RB Leipzig and 39 caps for Slovenia, he is becoming a hot commodity in the transfer market. RB Leipzig reportedly values the striker at €70 million (£59 million), a price tag that hasn’t deterred interest from Arsenal and Newcastle.
Klopp, who has followed Sesko’s career since his early days at Red Bull Salzburg, praised his development. “I’ve known him for a while, and I thought, ‘Where do they get all these players?’ It’s ridiculous. He has space for improvement and an incredible skill set,” Klopp added.
Despite the transfer speculation, Klopp assured reporters that his role with Red Bull is advisory and that Leipzig head coach Marco Rose is focused on helping Sesko maximize his potential. “Our plan is simple: help him score as many goals as possible,” Klopp said.
RB Leipzig appears committed to holding onto Sesko, who is contracted until 2029. However, a substantial offer in the summer could test their resolve. Arsenal’s interest in Sesko may intensify as they seek to strengthen their squad in the face of stiff competition in the Premier League.
With his immense potential and eye-catching performances, Benjamin Sesko is cementing his status as one of Europe’s brightest young talents. As the summer transfer window approaches, the battle for his signature promises to be one of the most exciting storylines.
