Manchester United is said to be the ‘Frontrunners’ to sign RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko, according to the transfer journalist Ben Jacobs.
After working for a large fee at Atalanta a few years ago, Rasmus Hojlund showed a glimpse of his qualities in his debut campaign in Old Trafford, although his productivity was not the best.
However, he declined and only scored four goals from the Premier League. Joshua Zirkzee was purchased to support the DANE, but he showed average performance in the past term.
That is why the Red Devils have returned to the market to sign a new striker, despite the fact that he spent around £ 100 million in the last two summers for two no. 9s.
Liam Delap was mentioned earlier this summer as the primary target for Man Utd, but he decided to become a member of Chelsea. Viktor Gyokeres was reportedly the preferred option of Ruben Amorim, but he became a member of Arsenal.
It was recently reported that Man Utd Ollie Watkins has reserved as a potential option, because Amorim wants to play Premier League players. Aston Villa, however, has made it clear that the player is not for sale.
Sesko to Man Utd
So, Amorim’s side has now decided to go for Sesko. Newcastle United are also interested In him because they have identified him as the primary target for replacing Alexander Isak, who likes to be a member of Liverpool.
Now, on X” Jacobs Says that man utd are the ‘front runners’ to sign Sesko after holding positive conversations this week, with the player ‘sharp’ about moving to Old Trafford, even without European football.
Although Newcastle is still in conversation with the player to sign him, the Magpies believe that the player is more interested in becoming a member of the 20-meal English champions.
However, buying him will not be easy for United, because Leipzig wants at least £ 65 million plus add-ons to leave. Arsenal was also interested in signing him, but felt that the price was too high, so they decided to go for Gyokees.
Sesko is a 6ft 5 in long, very talented player and is excellent in the air. He has a better striking ball than any other player in the world. That is why he would be a great coup for Man Utd with a view to the future in the long term if they can ultimately secure his service before the start of the following season.
