Al-Hilal's management is reportedly preparing to enter the race for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, with a substantial offer expected in the coming days.

The Slovenian has been a primary target for Arsenal, but the Gunners appear increasingly hesitant to meet the German club's €80 million asking price.

The Gunners have now moved on to another target, Victor Gyokeres of Sporting Lisbon and are currently negotiating a deal for the striker.

According to British newspaper The Sun, via Sportal, Sesko could leave Leipzig and move to Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal this summer.

Having failed with several impressive bids for Victor Osimhen, who seems likely to stay at Galatasaray, Al-Hilal continues its search for a top striker.

The €80 million fee shouldn't be a problem for the Saudi side, having already offered €75 million for Osimhen.

Sesko's wages are also unlikely to be a stumbling block for the Middle Eastern club if they eventually agree to a deal for the forward.
