Chelsea has been garnering attention for their pursuit of RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sesko, with goalkeeping sensation Djordje Petrovic asserting that the talented forward is ideally suited for the Premier League.
Following the recent departure of esteemed coach Mauricio Pochettino, the west London club is poised to appoint Enzo Maresca of Leicester City as his successor. This comes as the club prepares to make significant moves in the transfer market, including the acquisition of four new players, notably a prolific striker.
Sesko, who has also attracted interest from Arsenal and Manchester United, has been in exceptional form, impressively contributing to goals in 13 of the final 16 games of the Bundesliga season. This outstanding performance has resulted in a substantial rise in his release clause to £56 million.
Petrovic, admiring Sesko’s abilities, is convinced that the 24-year-old would excel in the Premier League. He lauded Sesko as a versatile forward, possessing the physical attributes, speed, and intelligence required by modern players. The perceptive goalkeeper has been closely monitoring Sesko’s performances and is confident in his potential to shine in one of the world’s premier leagues.
On a personal note, Petrovic expressed his gratitude to Pochettino for the opportunity and faith the coach had shown in him during their time together at Chelsea. Despite Pochettino’s departure, Petrovic acknowledged that it is a decision to be respected and wished the coach and the entire coaching staff well in their future endeavours.
As Chelsea prepares for the upcoming season, all eyes will be on the newly appointed manager, Maresca, who will be expected to make an immediate impact. With a fresh coach at the helm, it remains to be seen who will be among the new recruits to form a formidable squad.
This pursuit of Sesko, among other potential signings, hints at an exciting time for Chelsea, with the hope of creating a strong and competitive team for the challenges that lie ahead.
