Reports are emerging that the agents of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Šeško have contacted Liverpool to gauge the club’s potential interest in signing the player this summer.
This move comes immediately after Arsenal reached a definitive agreement to sign Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting CP. Šeško had been heavily linked with a move to the Gunners, but with Arsenal securing their primary forward target, that door now appears to be closed, prompting his representatives to quickly explore other elite options.
It is understood that this is an initial approach to test the waters and determine if Liverpool would be open to negotiations. It is not yet clear whether Liverpool will actively pursue a deal for the highly-rated Slovenian international, as the club is already well-stocked with attacking talent.
However, this development introduces a new and interesting dynamic into the transfer market. With Šeško now seemingly available to other top clubs, the focus will shift to Liverpool’s response in the coming days to see if they will enter the race for the striker.
