Three of Europe's most powerful clubs, Liverpool, Barcelona and Manchester City, are set to do battle for the services of young RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, according to a report from BILD. The 20-year-old has been impressing of late with his outstanding performances, attracting the attention of European football giants.

Diogo Jota's real injury problem, Jurgen Klopp in shock

Sesko rose to fame while playing for Red Bull Salzburg, before being signed by RB Leipzig last summer for €24 million. Since his arrival in Germany, he has proved his worth by scoring 10 goals in 28 appearances, establishing himself as a promising prospect for the future.

The interest of Liverpool, Barcelona and Manchester City in Sesko reflects their recognition as an emerging talent on the European football scene. The Catalans, in particular, see Sesko as a potential long-term successor to Robert Lewandowski, while City are looking to bolster their squad with young talent. Liverpool, meanwhile, see Sesko as a viable option to bolster their forward line, especially with the possible departure of Mohamed Salah and changes to the squad expected with the departure of Jurgen Klopp.

Sesko would be Jota's replacement

The termination clause in Sesko's contract, valued at €50m and running until the summer of 2028, could trigger his departure from RB Leipzig in the next transfer window. Although the German club initially did not include such a clause, its acceptance reflects a determination to attract the talented striker and could facilitate his eventual move to one of the clubs interested in him.
