# Tottenham: Spurs ‘considering’ Benjamin Sesko move

**Tottenham are ‘considering’ a move for RB Salzburg striker Benjamin Sesko, according to [Gianluigi Longari](https://twitter.com/glongari/status/1484132316301737986?s=21).**

### The Lowdown: Sesko profiled

Sesko is just 18 years of age and is an out and out centre-forward who already has [seven](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/benjamin-sesko/profil/spieler/627442) caps for Slovenia.

Valued at £7.2m by [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/benjamin-sesko/profil/spieler/627442), Sesko is his [agency’s most valuable asset](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/pro-transfer/beraterfirma/berater/2579) and has contributed to [13](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/benjamin-sesko/leistungsdaten/spieler/627442) goals in [24](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/benjamin-sesko/leistungsdaten/spieler/627442) Salzburg appearances in what has been a breakthrough 2021/22 campaign for the young prodigy.

The [6 foot 3](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/benjamin-sesko/profil/spieler/627442) striker still has over four years remaining on his [contract](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/benjamin-sesko/profil/spieler/627442) with the Austrian giants, but it seems as if Spurs and Fabio Paratici are weighing up a move.

### The Latest: Longari’s post

[Longari](https://twitter.com/glongari/status/1484132316301737986?s=21) took to Twitter on Thursday to reveal Spurs’ interest in Sesko. He claimed that Tottenham are considering a move for the teenager, with a number of other clubs also making enquiries.

> “Tottenham are also considering the young striker Benjamin Sesko from Salzburg. Nothing advanced for the moment. Other clubs have made enquiries about him.”

### The Verdict: Vlahovic alternative?

Antonio Conte seems to be keen on bolstering his centre forward ranks, with the club [keen](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1553004/Tottenham-Arsenal-Dusan-Vlahovic-Antonio-Conte-transfer-news-SNT) on Fiorentina star Dusan Vlahovic. However, Arsenal appear to be [leading](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10378407/Arsenal-strongest-position-sign-Fiorentina-striker-Dusan-Vlahovic.html) the race for the Serbian, so Sesko could be viewed as a possible alternative to Vlahovic.

Harry Kane is Tottenham’s [only](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tottenham-hotspur/kader/verein/148) recognised centre-forward available to Conte, so bringing in someone like Sesko could be a smart move.

He appears to be a future star and could be the latest to leave Salzburg for the Premier League, so this could be a transfer to keep a close eye on over the coming weeks, if not months.
