Chelsea Fans Call for ‘Special’ Striker Benjamin Sesko After Stellar Performance

Chelsea may find themselves in need of a new center-forward come January or next summer. Despite attempts to bolster the attack during the last transfer window, the Blues were unable to secure top target Victor Osimhen. While they did sign Marc Guiu from Barcelona, the 18-year-old striker isn’t expected to carry the weight of getting Chelsea back to their former glory just yet.

Chelsea Fans Eye Benjamin Sesko After Slovenia Hat-Trick

As Chelsea looks ahead to future transfer windows, many fans already have their eyes set on one striker: RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko. The 21-year-old Slovenian forward recently delivered a stunning hat-trick in his country’s 3-0 victory over Kazakhstan, and Chelsea supporters have been buzzing ever since.

One fan took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their excitement: “My top 2 Chelsea number 9 targets, Gyokeres and Sesko. Both balling. Get one of them at my club.”

Chelsea had shown interest in Sesko during the summer, but he ultimately chose to stay at Leipzig for the sake of his development. However, with his recent performances and Chelsea’s potential need for a proven goalscorer, the club could reignite their pursuit of him in 2025.

Why Sesko is an Ideal Target for Chelsea

If Chelsea decides to add a new striker to their ranks, Sesko is undoubtedly a player worth considering. He ended last season on an impressive note, scoring in seven consecutive Bundesliga matches. At just 21, Sesko’s talent and potential are evident, and he’s only expected to improve as he continues to develop.

Former Chelsea and Leipzig technical director Christopher Vivell even praised the young forward, stating, “His abilities make him a special player,” as quoted by the Bundesliga’s official website.

Could Sesko Be Chelsea’s Next Number 9?

With Chelsea fans already calling for Sesko’s signature, it’s clear the excitement surrounding him is growing. If the Blues do revive their interest next year, it seems the fanbase will be fully behind the move—and for good reason. Sesko’s combination of youth, skill, and goal-scoring ability could make him a perfect fit for Chelsea’s ambitions moving forward.
