AC Milan’s Bid for Benjamin Sesko: Challenging Arsenal’s Interest
AC Milan aims to outmaneuver Arsenal in the race to secure RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, with a reported bid of €50 million (£43m/$54m) meeting the player’s previous release clause.
Navigating Sesko’s Escalating Release Clause
Despite positive talks between AC Milan and Sesko’s representatives, the Italian club may need to increase their bid due to Sesko’s escalating release clause, which now stands at €65m (£56m/$70m) and could rise further before the transfer window opens. Arsenal’s interest adds pressure to Milan’s bid as they seek a replacement for departing striker Olivier Giroud.
