In the midst of negotiations and planning for the next season, the real Madrid has taken a surprising turn. Yes ok Kylian Mbappé has been the star name linked to the cluba new figure has emerged as an option to reinforce the offensive line: Benjamin Seskothe talented 20-year-old striker from RB Leipzig. According to reports from Sport Mediaset, the merengue entity is seriously considering the incorporation of the Slovenian as part of its strategy to strengthen the attack. Although interest in Sesko could overshadow the possible arrival of ‘Kiki’, it is argued that the French international has lost some weight within the white team in recent weeks.
The apparent decline in interest in Mbappé has led Real Madrid to explore new options to strengthen their forward line. The club is looking for a ‘9’ for next season, and Benjamin Sesko, who has 6 goals in 14 games this season, has caught the attention of the leadership with his outstanding performance at RB Leipzig.

Sesko embodies the youth and emerging talent that Real Madrid seeks to incorporate into its ranks. The Slovenian striker, valued at 30 million euros, has stood out for his scoring ability and versatility on the attacking front, attributes that would fit perfectly with the strategy followed by the club in recent years.
Although the number ‘9’ is still vacant in the Real Madrid squad, the figure of Sesko is presented as an attractive and promising option. Reports suggest that the club has been closely monitoring the forward’s development for some time, and 2024 could be the right time to bring him in.
This openness of Real Madrid to explore different options in the market indicates a broader strategy, demonstrating that the club is not willing to close itself exclusively to the possibility of signing Mbappé. With Sesko as one of the cards on the table, the Santiago Bernabéu could receive a new young and exciting talent to strengthen their ranks for next season.
Why didn’t Real Madrid sign Mbappé in 2022?
Real Madrid was one step away from acquiring Mbappé’s services in May of last year. After months of negotiations, president Florentino Pérez, apparently, verbally convinced the French forward to play at the Santiago Bernabéu and all that remained was to sign.
However, suddenly, the Bondy prodigy stopped answering the calls that came to him from Paseo de la Castellana and a few days later he appeared in the Parc des Princes, together with Nasser Al-Khelaifi, to announce to the whole world his renewal with Paris Saint-Germain until June 30, 2024.
