I played for both Arsenal and Chelsea – here’s who Benjamin Sesko should join

Benjamin Sesko should reject Chelsea and join Arsenal, according to Emmanuel Petit.

The two clubs are eager to sign a No. 9 this summer, and given reports of a £55million release clause in Sesko’s contract, it’s little surprise to see the Slovenian striker heavily linked with a move to London. It’s understood both the Blues and the Gunners have been working to reel Sesko in for weeks, with the RB Leipzig man reportedly open to a move to either side.




But Petit, who played for both Arsenal and Chelsea, reckons Sesko would be a fool to say no to the Gunners. “He should definitely pick Arsenal [over Chelsea],” the 53-year-old said speaking exclusively to Football London, via Best Online Poker Sites.

“Why? Because of the way they’ve been playing and the spine of the team have been playing together for at least four or five years. They have improved so much individually and collectively.

“They have a proper philosophy of playing. And the environment as well. I think it’s much better at Arsenal than at Chelsea, even though that did improve slightly at Chelsea over the last few months.

“But while it’s a new era at Chelsea, the stability is with the Gunners. So there is more green light, if I was Sesko, to go to Arsenal instead of going to Chelsea.”

Sesko, 21, joined Leipzig last summer following two successful seasons at their sister club, Red Bull Salzburg. After making a slow start to the campaign, he scored 11 goals in 16 Bundesliga games, including seven in seven to finish the season with a bang.
