Lucas Arnold of TBR Football has reported that Moise Kean has been linked to Arsenal in the ongoing transfer window. Mikel Arteta wants to strengthen his options in the attacking department. As such, Kean is the latest player who has been offered to the Gunners.
Bukayo Saka has been the most important player for the Gunners, but his injury has derailed the ambitions of his team. Moreover, Gabriel Jesus remains sidelined by injury as well. Hence, Arsenal are suffering in the attacking department. Arteta, however, wants to sign the player, who will be the best option in the attacking department.
The Gunners have been linked to Dusan Vlahovic, Benjamin Sesko, Alexander Isak, and Victor Osimhen. Reports have stated that the Gunners would go on to sign Sesko in the summer transfer window. Kean has scored 12 goals in 20 matches so far in the Serie A 2024/2025 season.
Eight of the 12 goals were scored at home, while he scored 4 goals at away games. Overall, Moise Kean’s goals scored per 90 minutes is 0.65. Moreover, Moise Kean’s total G/A (goals + assists) is 14 for this season. His goal involvement equates to 0.75 per 90 minutes.
His stats depict that he is having a fabulous season for Fiortentina so far. As such, he might be the best option for Arsenal to help them with goals. However, Fiorentina might not agree to sell him in the middle of the season unless the Gunners spend more than his market value to entice a move. It remains to be seen what finally happens with this move.
Arsenal will wait for Benjamin Sesko for a summer move
Graeme Bailey of TBR Football has reported that Arsenal have been very much interested in RB Leipzig attacker Sesko. However, the Gunners are now sure that the player won’t be moving in the January transfer window. As such, they need to wait till the summer transfer window for any move.
He has been one of the best attackers in the last few seasons. Sesko has scored eight goals in 18 matches in the Bundesliga 2024/2025 season. Overall, Sesko’s goals scored per 90 minutes is 0.56. Moreover, Sesko’s total G/A (goals + assists) is 10 for this season. His goal involvement equates to 0.7 per 90 minutes. His non-penalty xG per 90 minutes is 0.51. This puts Sesko’s npxG output at 7.34.
🚨 Benjamin Sesko would prefer a move to Arsenal over Chelsea or Manchester United but RB Leipzig do not want to sell the 21-year-old this window.

The Gunners wanted Sesko last summer as well, but the player decided to stay at his club. Arsenal have faced issues in scoring consistent goals due to the lack of performances from Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus. The club does have the funds to sign Sesko in the summer, and it remains to be seen if the move goes through finally.
