Bayern Munich has added RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko to its transfer shortlist, entering a competitive race for the 22-year-old Slovenian centre-forward.
The German giants now join Manchester United and Arsenal in showing interest in the striker, according to ESPN and BBC Sport.
Sesko has established himself as one of Europe's top young strikers, scoring 39 goals in 87 matches during his two seasons at RB Leipzig.
BBC Sport reports that his record places him ahead of Jude Bellingham and five goals clear of Florian Wirtz among under-23 goalscorers in Europe's top five leagues, with a 23.5% conversion rate in league play.
The striker reportedly prefers a move to the English Premier League.
Manchester United has identified Sesko as its primary attacking target and has held preliminary talks with Leipzig, as reported by BBC Sport.
Leipzig has set an estimated release clause and valuation of around €70 million (£70 million) for any potential deal.
United has already invested £130 million in forward additions Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo under manager Ruben Amorim's squad reorganization.
Meanwhile, rival suitor Arsenal has shifted focus to signing Viktor Gyokeres for up to £64 million, leaving Manchester United in a prime position to pursue the Slovenian international if they choose to meet Leipzig's asking price.
Bayern Munich has short-listed RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko alongside Manchester United, with Leipzig valuing the player around 70 million euros.
