Benjamin Sesko potential destinations - ranked
The 2024 summer transfer window looks set to be dominated by strikers, with RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko one of many players being tracked by Europe's elite.
The 20-year-old's €50m (£42m) release clause makes him a fascinating prospect, not least because Leipzig are expected to be flexible when it comes to that clause. At a time in which financial rules have left the globe paralysed by fear, that could be massive for any suitor.
Here's a look at Sesko's potential destinations, ranked by fit.
Barcelona have been linked to countless players this summer, despite the fact they can't afford to sign anybody, and that feels like the case with Sesko.
Camp Nou officials probably do like Sesko, who would actually make sense considering 35-year-old Robert Lewandowski isn't getting any younger, but they're not going to be able to compete for Sesko financially.
Fortunately for Barcelona, they do have Vitor Roque as the heir to Lewandowski's throne. Time to hope he comes good.

Liverpool have plenty of pressing matters as they prepare for Jurgen Klopp's departure, but signing a new striker shouldn't be one of them.
The Reds already have an expensive forward in Darwin Nunez, and while Sesko would make a very nice alternative, it seems like Liverpool need to be spending their money elsewhere.
A new centre-back is key and another midfielder wouldn't hurt, and then there's the little old question of potentially needing to replace Mohamed Salah if he is swayed by Saudi Arabia.
