Benjamin D. asked: “Following Andrea Berta’s appointment as Arsenal’s sporting director, has the interest in Benjamin Sesko cooled? Additionally, is there any appetite at Arsenal to bring in a world-class winger this summer?”
Ornstein: Just because Mikel Arteta really likes Alexander Isak and it emerged that Berta is a big fan of Viktor Gyokeres, there’s no reason to think Sesko is not still in the mix. Given all the work they’ve done on him, I’m sure he will be — and rightly so, he’s a top talent.
These situations can fluctuate; there are many factors and moving parts. Multiple names will be in the frame…
we also hear there’s admiration for Hugo Ekitike at Eintracht Frankfurt, for example, and that’s natural. Who wouldn’t like him? It doesn’t mean there is a clear direction of travel yet.
We’ll try to keep you across the situation as it evolves.
