RB Leipzig coach Marco Rose is confident they will keep hold of Benjamin Sesko this month.

Arsenal have approached RB Leipzig for the centre-forward about a deal before the January transfer window closes.

The Gunners are open to either a straight purchase or loan-to-buy arrangement.

But Rose, when asked if Sesko would be staying for the remainder of the season, told Sky Deutschland: "Yes, that’s still the case!”

This season, Sesko has scored eight league goals and provided two assists in 17 league games.
