Transfer Frenzy: Al Hilal Targets Sesko as Arsenal Talks Stall, Napoli Eyes Garnacho
Stay updated with the latest transfer news as Al Hilal eyes RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko amidst stalled Arsenal talks, and Napoli pursues Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho.

Al Hilal's Pursuit of Benjamin Sesko
Al Hilal is reportedly ready to make a move for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko as negotiations with Arsenal have hit a snag. The Gunners, who were initially in talks with Sesko, have failed to agree on a transfer fee with Leipzig. This has led Al Hilal to step in, aiming to secure the services of the 22-year-old Slovenian forward. If Al Hilal's efforts to sign Sesko fall through, they are also keeping tabs on Crystal Palace's Jean-Philippe Mateta.
Napoli's Interest in Alejandro Garnacho
In another significant development, Napoli has reignited its interest in Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho. The Serie A club is hopeful that a €50m offer will be sufficient to bring the 21-year-old Argentinian international to Italy. Manchester United, previously seeking around €65m for Garnacho, might now be open to a lower bid following a reported fallout with manager Ruben Amorim.
