Former Chelsea striker Tony Cascarino has heaped praise on Arsenal transfer target Benjamin Sesko, drawing comparisons with Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs and Manchester City striker Erling Haaland. Cascarino, who played for Chelsea from 1992 to 1994, spoke highly of Sesko’s impressive skills and physical attributes, which he believes make him a valuable asset for any team.t
Speaking to talkSPORT, Cascarino said: “Benjamin Sesko is an exceptional talent. He’s a big lad, standing at 6ft 4in or 6ft 5in, and he’s incredibly powerful. But what sets him apart is his ability to dribble with the ball. For someone of his height, he’s unbelievably skilled at running with the ball and beating opponents.”
Cascarino continued: “I know he’s been linked to being similar to Haaland, but if you watch him play, you’ll see that he’s more like Ryan Giggs. He’ll run at people and literally go around them. His dribbling skills are exceptional, and he’s got the pace and power to leave defenders in his wake.”
Sesko, who currently plays for RB Leipzig, has been linked with a move to Arsenal this summer. If the transfer materializes, Cascarino believes Sesko will be a valuable addition to the Gunners’ squad. “Arsenal would be getting a top-class player if they sign Sesko,” Cascarino said. “He’s got all the attributes to succeed in the Premier League, and I think he’d be a great fit for Mikel Arteta’s team.”
Overall, Cascarino’s glowing endorsement of Sesko highlights the young striker’s immense potential and the excitement surrounding his possible move to Arsenal.
