Manchester United has made a significant move in the transfer market by tabling a £74m offer for RB Leipzig's talented striker, Benjamin Sesko. The proposed deal could reach up to 85m euros, with a guaranteed payment of 75m euros included in the offer.
While awaiting a response from Leipzig, Manchester United is optimistic about the valuation they have placed on the 22-year-old Slovenian forward. It is believed that Sesko is eager to make a switch to Old Trafford. However, Newcastle United is also in the running for Sesko's signature and has reportedly made a bid around 80m euros.
Sesko, who has netted 39 goals in 87 appearances for Leipzig, brings a robust physical presence to the front line, standing at 6 feet 5 inches. The player's prowess has drawn comparisons to Erling Haaland due to his strength, speed, aerial ability, and goal-scoring acumen.
Manchester United is prepared to offload Rasmus Hojlund to accommodate Sesko's potential arrival. The club's interest in Sesko is viewed as a strategic move, especially considering their recent financial maneuvers, including the favorable payment arrangements for other summer acquisitions.
Having outperformed other young talents in Europe's top five leagues, Sesko's prowess has not gone unnoticed, with both Manchester United and Newcastle United vying for his services. Sesko's adaptability and skill set have garnered praise from recruitment experts, who believe he has the capabilities to excel in the physicality of the Premier League.
As negotiations continue between the clubs, the competition for Sesko's transfer intensifies, hinting at a potentially exciting move for the promising forward.
