Sesko, an international player from Slovenia, is also being considered by Manchester United, but he currently favors joining Newcastle.
A Slovenian news outlet reports that Arsenal had previously shown interest in Sesko but lost momentum after signing Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting CP.
Despite Manchester United's strong push, Sesko prefers to move to Newcastle.
However, any potential deal may depend on the future of Alexander Isak, as Newcastle recently turned down a £110m offer from Liverpool for the Swedish player.
