This 19-year-old attacker is such a tremendous talent that Chelsea are seemingly willing to put their pursuit of defensive reinforcements on hold just to get him to sign. Benjamin Sesko is the name, and Blue could be the colour.Salzburg’s in-form Slovenian goalscorer was already attracting interest from clubs like Newcastle United, Manchester United and a host of clubs in Germany. However, Sesko’s agent Elvis Basanovic is now in London for talks with Chelsea’s owner Todd Boehly.

Just a few days ago, he posted a picture from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, suggesting that Sesko could soon become a Magpie. Now, Basanovic’s tour of England has reached London. There is no doubt that there will be nervous phone calls between other clubs’ representatives. The time is ticking and the price is probably going up with every passing hour.For anyone who wants to have a look at Benjamin Sesko . Get him to Chelsea pic.twitter.com/7N4WGB2zh2— BLUE🥶🇺🇦 (@RJamesSZN) July 31, 2022 The Slovenia international still has four years of contract to run at the Austrian club, putting the Red Bull’s pet project club in a strong negotiating position. They’ve already sold their best goalscorer Karim Adeyemi to Dortmund for a fee of around $30 million. According to various European reports, Sesko’s price tag could even be twice as high.Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has to address the lack of players in his defence, but also in attack. Romelu Lukaku went back to Inter Milan, Timo Werner is far too inconsistent, Michy Batshuayi has only just returned from his loan at Besiktas and there is the young Albanian Armando Broja, who has played four minutes for Chelsea so far. Neither of those are now considered good enough for the Blues.##NAJAVA_MECA_6533916##Sesko is a tall and strong striker who has scored 12 goals in 39 appearances for the Red Bulls. He’s widely regarded as a future superstar. The queue seems to be lengthy – and Boehly and Tuchel have just joined it.
