Benjamin Sesko Responds to Manchester United’s Interest Amid Summer Transfer Speculation
RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sesko now firmly on Manchester United’s radar as a key target due to their search for a new striker has gained force. The Red Devils have turned their attention to Benjamin Sesko as a strong alternative to lead their attack, after missing out on Viktor Gyokeres, who ended up signing with Arsenal.
Manchester United have already reached out to Benjamin Sesko’s agent as reported by Sky Germany, presented both their long-term football vision and financial bid in a deal to win him over. Having scored 39 goals in two seasons, the Slovenian striker is said to be impressed by what Manchester United have on the table.
Manchester United currently seem to have the upper hand in the race for Sesko’s signing, ahead of Newcastle, who are also eyeing him as a possible replacement for Alexander Isa. So there’s alot of negotiation left to be done before any deal is struck, because RB Leipzig aren’t backing down from their £64 million price tag.
As it has previously cleared out by Sesko that his future club must suit his style of play and support his development as a player. On his words, he’s more focused on finding a team whose tactics and culture can truly bring out the best in him, rather than just chasing big money offers. He stated after recent praise to Leipzig for impacting in his growth, that any future move must be to a club that “brings out the best in him.”
Manager Ruben Amorim suggested that mutual interest and understanding are essential before any deal is made, while reinforcing that the club is only interested in players who are fully on board with their vision. The coming weeks could be decisive in determining where his future lies, with Sesko showing appreciation for United’s project and having a clear idea of what he wants.
IMPACTOTRENDING’S VIEWS
Manchester United have taken meaningful steps forward in their efforts to sign Benjamin Sesko. The striker’s encouraging reaction to their proposal and his penness to a move that fits his style and values, gives the club a clear advantage in the race for his signature. However, Leipzig’s steep valuation and competition from Newcastle mean the deal is far from a sure thing.
