Arsenal have long been considered frontrunners in the race to sign Benjamin Sesko.
According to reports, the Gunners are already in talks with RB Leipzig over a transfer fee, though no agreement has been reached so far.
Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano now reports that Arsenal are facing competition from clubs in Saudi Arabia, who have also made contact regarding the Slovenian international.
However, Sesko’s priority remains staying in Europe, where he sees his long-term future.
The 22-year-old forward is under contract with Leipzig until 2029, and the Bundesliga club is reportedly seeking a fee of around €80 million.
