Tottenham are reportedly eyeing up some ambitious transfer targets following their Europa League win against Manchester United last night.
Spurs enjoyed a hard-fought 1-0 win over the Red Devils in Bilbao, securing Champions League football for next season, which should help them be a bit more ambitious in the transfer market.
That’s now leading Tottenham to look into signing RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, according to Spanish outlet Fichajes.
Sesko has long been a target for Arsenal as well, so this could be a worrying development for the Gunners if it proves accurate.
Wherever the talented young Slovenia international ends up this summer, he’s expected to cost around £60m, as per a previous report from Give Me Sport.

Benjamin Sesko transfer: Should he join Arsenal or Tottenham?
It’s hard to imagine Sesko being that tempted to join Spurs over Arsenal right now, but you never know what winning a major European trophy and qualifying for the Champions League can do for your reputation.
The fact remains, however, that Ange Postecoglou’s side have had a dire Premier League campaign, and remain in 17th place in the league table.
Unless major changes are made, and that could include a change of manager, it’s hard to imagine THFC doing anything of note in the Champions League next season.
