Arsenal have done it! After weeks of speculation and fierce competition across Europe, Benjamin Šeško has officially agreed to join the Gunners in a sensational transfer that sends a clear statement: Mikel Arteta means business this summer.

🔴 Deal Details:
Fee: Around €65 million, triggering RB Leipzig’s release clause
Contract: Long-term deal until 2029, personal terms fully agreed
Medical: Set to take place in London in the coming days
Announcement: Expected by the end of the week

🧨 Why This Is Huge:
Šeško, just 21 years old, is widely considered one of Europe’s most lethal emerging strikers — blending raw pace, clinical finishing, and towering physicality. He scored 18 goals across all competitions last season and was on the radar of Chelsea, Man United, and AC Milan — but Arsenal won the race.

🗣️ What Arsenal insiders are saying:
> “This is the striker Arteta wanted. He’s young, intelligent, and fits our pressing system perfectly. We’ve got a serious weapon now.”

🧠 What It Means:
With Šeško leading the line, Arsenal finally address their long-standing need for a dominant No. 9 — someone to finish off the countless chances created by Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli, and Rice.
This also likely spells the end for at least one of Nketiah or Jesus, with potential exits looming.

🔥 Arsenal fans, rejoice — the new era of firepower has arrived.
