Arsenal are the firm favourites to sign Benjamin Sesko in the summer and they seem all but guaranteed to land the Slovenian if they decide to turn their interest into a formal offer. The RB Leipzig striker was already the Gunners' top target last summer but ultimately decided that another season in Germany would be better for his development.
