Chelsea fans are convinced they should be signing ‘special’ striker after recent performance for his country

Chelsea find themselves in a position where they may need to sign a new centre-forward in January or next summer.

They struggled to do that in the previous transfer window, with Chelsea unable to land Victor Osimhen.

The Blues did manage to sign Marc Guiu from Barcelona, but he is only 18 and cannot be expected to fire the club back to the top.

All in all, then, it would not be a shock if Chelsea decided to sign a new striker in 2025, and some supporters already know who they want.

Chelsea fans want to see Benjamin Sesko at Stamford Bridge after Slovenia hat-trick

Chelsea could revive their deal for Osimhen, but it looks like some fans have already moved on from the 25-year-old.

RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko scored a hat-trick for Slovenia in their 3-0 win against Kazakhstan on Monday, which caught the attention of many Chelsea supporters, who are now calling for their club to sign him.

One Chelsea fan on X said: “My top 2 Chelsea number 9 targets, Gyokeres and Sesko. Both balling. Get one of them at my club.”

Another said: “This is the type of talent that gets you off your feet! None of this Gyokeres nonsense… bring Sesko!”

And finally, one other Chelsea supporter posted: “I’d take Sesko, easy.”

Chelsea were interested in signing Sesko during the summer transfer window, so the club targeting him next year does not sound impossible.

At one stage, it was claimed that Chelsea were prioritising Sesko, but the 21-year-old decided to stay at Leipzig in the end for the sake of his development.

Should Chelsea make a move for Benjamin Sesko in 2025?

If Chelsea feel that their squad needs a new striker, then Sesko is definitely someone whom the club should consider.

Sesko went on an impressive run of seven consecutive goals in his final seven Bundesliga games last season and, at 21, he is only likely to get better.

“His abilities make him a special player,” former Chelsea and Leipzig technical director Christopher Vivell was quoted as saying by the Bundesliga’s official website.

If Chelsea do revive their interest in Sesko next year, it looks like fans will be on board with it, and understandably so.
