Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur have a little chance of signing Benjamin Sesko amid interest from Arsenal and Manchester United.

The Slovenia international is likely to leave RB Leipzig at the end of the season. He has formally agreed a €70 million release clause in his contract that could increase to €80m.

United, Arsenal as well as Spurs have expressed an interest in the 21-year-old striker, but Florian Plettenberg claims that Ange Postecoglou's side have a little chance of signing him.

Spurs made a huge outlay on landing Dominic Solanke from Bournemouth last summer and he has been an undisputed starter when fit and available for selection.

The club also signed Mathys Tel on loan with an option to buy for around €60m this winter. They are more likely to keep him rather than invest in Sesko later this year.

Sesko could also be reluctant to join the London outfit, who are languishing 13th in the table. He is more likely to join the Gunners competing at the top of the standings.
