Benjamin Sesko says the ‘overall package’ at RB Leipzig convinced him to extend his stay at the Bundesliga club amid interest from Premier League rivals Arsenal and Chelsea.
‘I had a good first year at RB Leipzig and am incredibly happy to be here,’ he told the club’s official website.
‘Team, club, city, fans – the overall package is simply outstanding for me. The early contract extension was therefore the logical next step for me.
‘Even though I didn’t play or score as much in the first half of the season, this phase was very important for me and my development.
‘I feel a lot of trust and appreciation throughout the club and that is crucial for being able to perform to my full potential. In the second half of the season in particular, I was able to give something back with my goals.
‘We have a team with great potential and a balanced mix of young and experienced players. I’m really looking forward to taking the next steps with this team.
‘We’ve already achieved a lot in my first season and often shown what quality and outstanding football we can bring to the pitch. But there’s still a lot more to be done and that’s now our common goal.’
