New asking price for Benjamin Šeško?

RB Leipzig have seemingly stepped away from their original asking price of €100 million for the services of Benjamin Šeško. The new asking price is considerably lower!

Viktor Gyökeres is on his way to Arsenal, Liverpool have bought Hugo Ekitiké and Chelsea have signed new strikers in João Pedro and Liam Delap – what does this mean for the future of Leipzig’s Benjamin Šeško?

The talented Slovenian has been linked to all those clubs in recent months, but a move away from Leipzig is currently more unlikely than ever – have Leipzig missed the right moment to sell their top striker?

Apart from Newcastle, who might have to sell Alexander Isak in the coming weeks, no top European team (with a lot of spare money) are in need of a new top striker.

Benjamin Šeško has openly talked about a move away this summer, but Leipzig’s original asking price of €100 million has seemingly scared away potential buyers.

According to “BILD”, Leipzig have now settled for a much lower fee: €70 million! This fee mirrors the exact market value of the 22-year-old, at least according to Transfermarkt.

Let’s see if this new asking price is getting the attention of Europe’s top clubs back…
